At Lanier Technical College, we care about student well-being and understand that life stressors — family, relationships, finances, school, mental & physical health — can disrupt academic success. Student Support Services aims to help students with assessing issues and concerns outside of the classroom that may create barriers to attaining academic, career and personal goal achievement. Non-academic support is offered through crisis management, brief solution-focused intervention and referrals for community resources.
