We held our first Behavioral Health Careers Exploration Day on March 24, 2017 in La Crosse, Wisconsin. Students from across the SRAHEC region participated in the event to learn more about behavioral health careers and the educational path to get there.
Staff from Viterbo University's psychology, biopsychology, mental health counseling, and nursing programs, as well as, UW-L's clinical and school psychology programs, provided students with first hand experiences of the work in these fields. Students also visited with practicing professionals, including a substance abuse counselor, a psychologist, a psychiatric unit nurse, and a social worker over lunch.
