Mission Statement of the Contra Costa College Counseling Department

Contra Costa College counselors embrace the belief that every human being is unique and capable of growth. To this end, it is our commitment to assist students with planning and decisions which affect their educational, career and personal goals. It is our aim to provide this assistance in a confidential, positive, and supportive environment in which students feel free to voice their ideas and issues related to pursuing their goals. It is our intent, as well as our responsibility to respect the dignity and diverse needs of each student, and to encourage growth and development in the best interest of each student. Finally, we strive to provide appropriate support and instruction which empowers students to achieve their goals.
