What Does Wellness Mean to You?

The Wellness Center exists to promote and foster student well-being and elevate student wellness as a critical ingredient in the pursuit of academic and personal achievement.

The Wellness Center offers an integrated whole student approach to wellness in a collaborative, empowering, and supportive environment. At Modesto Junior College, we recognize that wellness must be part of our campus and community culture in order for students to achieve and succeed. In our ongoing pursuit for equitable access to opportunity and support, the Wellness Center will offer students the resources, tools, and opportunities to build a strong foundation of wellness so that they might thrive in all life pursuits.

Vision

All students have the wellness resources and opportunities they need to pursue and maintain a thriving academic and personal life.

Mission

To create a safe and welcoming space where each person can explore their path to wellness, find community, and embrace a vibrant, fulfilling academic and personal life.

Values

Care for the Whole Person: Wellness is a multidimensional: engaging the body and mind, nurturing the spirit. 

Inclusivity: Wellness begins with one's ability to feel like they are safe, seen, and belong.

Dignity: We honor the worthiness of all people and approach our work with respect, empathy, and compassion regardless of who someone is or their life circumstances.

Learning: Learning is how we grow and wellness is a lifelong journey.

Community: Wellness happens in Community. Through meaningful connections we foster belonging, learning, and trust. 

Impact

We are driven by the needs and lives of those we serve - striving to have real influence and impact in the lives of our students.
