Morrison Family College of Health
The Morrison Family College of Health is striving to address the shortage of culturally responsive health professionals who practice with social ingenuity and clinical excellence to improve health and community well-being while proactively advancing health equity and social justice.
We promise that we will educate students from diverse backgrounds to use and integrate knowledge from different professions and fields to improve health at the individual, family, community, and systems levels.
We believe that the most relevant and sustainable solutions to advance healthy communities and people is when those most impacted by inequities are also a part of the solution.

Master's and doctoral counseling psychology programs for students who want to use their degrees to provide psychological services in practice.
