Who We Are
The Active Minds Chapter at Palomar College is part of a national network of students on 700+ campuses revolutionizing the conversation about mental health under Active Minds. We’re not only serious about support but we’re here to have fun too!
Disclaimer
As mental health is a delicate and important matter, we do wish to emphasize that we’re not a support group or clinicians. We’re simply a group of college students united by our passion to raise awareness and create a fun time together!
