Welcome to the Caroline Huber Holistic Wellness Center!

 

wheel of seven colors with Brookdale shield in the centerA new Wellness Center is opening on the campus of Brookdale Community College. The creation of the wellness center was made possible by a generous bequest from Caroline Huber. The focus of the Center will be on total wellbeing with a thoughtful design created for spirituality, physical health, mental health, social relationships, and intellectual development. Programs and services will be available for Brookdale students, employees, and the community.

We are grateful for the generous donation bequeathed by Caroline Huber to make our vision for a wellness center on campus a reality. With mental health concerns escalating, this donation gives us the ability to face the needs of our community and ensure that we are putting the health and safety of our students at the top of our priority list.

Modern Space

The architectural plans for the two-story space include a reflection room for meditation, Brookdale’s food pantry, Helping Hands, dedicated office space for Monmouth County Social Worker Sylvina Mendez, and two offices for community partners. In addition, there is a courtyard that will be landscaped to provide a relaxing, peaceful Zen area.

 

Mission

To connect students, employees, and community members to campus resources and local partners that will support basic needs, enhance individual and community wellness, and promote social justice.

Vision

To empower a compassionate community dedicated to personal wellbeing, social connection, and collective engagement.
