About Us
 The
College of Education, Health and Human Development is committed to helping
improve quality of life at every stage of life. We ensure that young children
starting school will have great teachers and get the education they need to
succeed in life. But we also help their families choose healthy food and promote
exercise to make their bodies strong, provide counseling to help them grow
up in a healthy family, and provide home and environmental tips to make their
world a better place.
Students

get support as they face challenges in raising their grandchildren, help
HIV and AIDS patients find affordable and safe housing, and help tribal leaders
