The Den
The DEN Wellness Center seeks to promote holistic student wellbeing through the promotion of health and wellness outreach. We aspire to help students recognize the inherent connection between mental health, health, and wellness and the value that this knowledge holds in supporting their own wellbeing while on campus. In collaboration with the office of Counseling & Wellness, we strive to cultivate an inclusive campus community experience by creating safe and more supportive environments for students to explore and overcome challenges connected to life and learning through campus collaborations, partnerships, evidence-based practices and through a Systemic and Assets-based framework.

Featured Services
These services are provided at no charge to currently-enrolled, degree-seeking WSU Tri-Cities students thanks to support by the Student and Activities Fee.
Peer Education Programs
The Peer Education Programs, Cougs Reaching Cougs and Peer Health Promotion, offers students the opportunity to gain first-hand experience working in the mental health and wellness fields with an emphasis on valuing and respecting diversity among individuals. The primary focus of their work is on outreach and psychoeducational activities that provide stepped-care wellness support for students and the campus community and in turn build foundational professional skills to work in behavioral and/or health-related fields. The Peer Educator Teams work under the close guidance of the current licensed mental health clinician.
