Mental Health Resources
At Ellsworth Community College, we prioritize the well-being of our students and understand that mental health is an essential aspect of overall success and happiness. Recognizing the importance of providing support, ECC has established a valuable partnership with Achieve Mental Health to offer counseling services for our students. Every Monday through Thursday, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM, a dedicated time slot has been reserved exclusively for students seeking mental health counseling.
Achieve Mental Health is located at 814 Railroad Street in Iowa Falls. Their phone number is 641-648-4010.
This initiative aims to create a safe and confidential space for individuals to address their concerns, navigate challenges, and enhance their mental well-being. We believe in fostering a supportive community, and this counseling service is not only accessible to all ECC students but is also completely free of charge. Your mental health matters to us, and we are committed to helping you thrive both academically and personally.
