Create a Bachelor and Master's Program for Community Behavioral Health at WVSU!

Created by Tabetha Marcum on 29 March 2007 @ 7:23:30 PM

We have an Associate's degree program for Community Behavioral Health Technology at WVCTC. We are in DESPERATE need of a Bachelor and Master's degree program at WVSU nevertheless in the state of WV! These programs will begin a whole new chapter in education of Mental Health and Disabilities plus the proper training needed in this area! Mental Health services hire people with a High School Diploma/GED and a valid driver's license. They have no experience or training in this area! Do you really want your loved ones being taken care of people who have no experience or proper training in this field?

Graduates, Students, and Future Students do not want to be forced out of the state to further their education and find jobs! There has been and still is currently a problem with people leaving the state after getting their education or leaving the state to further their education and never returning, because of better career opportunities elsewhere. Do not force us to leave also!

More than 6,000 people between 18 and 34 in 1990 left the state by 2000. An additional 17% of young West Virginians believed they would move in the next five years, according to a poll conducted for The Herald-Dispatch, West Virginia Public Broadcasting and WMUL-FM(www.marshall.edu/cber/media/02-HD-road.PDF)

Are you concerned with how much these numbers have increased since?

Please save the future of West Virginia and the services provided here!

174Katie PerryI think WVSU needs a masters degree in Counseling so students don&#039;t have to leave and go elsewhere to finish what they have already began at State. This would not only be a benifcical to the students, but to West Virginina and the School as well

164Sean KeatingEvery change begins with a few words. There is a vast and growing need for improvement in the field of mental health. The old &quot;g.e.d. and driver license&quot; criteria is not only wrongheaded, it is HARMFUL. Wake Up WV! There is superior talent here-- Let's keep it here. And seriously, can WVSU justify running only a couple of grad programs forever? Make a difference, invest in local talent and local education!

159Adrian Connewaythis is a no brainer. people who work in this field need to have these degrees availabe at colleges closer to them. these people do great things in their work. wvsu is a great college. without these degrees availabe the college is losing the students who want to continue in their field. bring in these degrees more students will come.

154Mark BabickMy wife will be graduating the CBHT program in Decemeber. This program has changed our lives by teaching us different ways to cope with our two teenage daughters who have been diagnosed with Bipolar disorder. By being able to further her education at WVSUCTC will bring nothing but positive outcomes.

150Lynda ConnewayI am currently working on my associates degree and plan on getting my maaster's degree. I love WVSCTC and would like to stay at this college, instead of going to a larger school, where it will seem like I am a number, not a student.
149Morri DabneyI am a proud graduate of the CBHT program and I am currently enrolled as a grad student at another university. It is a misfortune that this option is not available to those of us who would like to continue our education at WV State University in the Behavioral Health Field. I can also attest that the quality of the education I received during my AAS/CBHT at WVSCTC is above any other I have yet to attain.
148Carolyn J. NelsonWVSU needs to step up to the plate and take the lead in this campaign. This is a truly great program that needs everyone's support.
