About and Mission

OUR MISSION:

"The School of Education and Human Services integrates human resource development
with counseling and education
to prepare collaborative leaders,
capable of, and committed to,
empowering others
and promoting an inclusive society."
 



The School of Education and Human Services has a strong commitment to preparing culturally responsive and compassionate leaders who enhance their communities and shape the future of their professions. The school has been recognized for its successful recruiting of diverse faculty and students and its extraordinarily strong partnerships with school districts and community agencies.

Our faculty, students and alumni touch the lives of thousands of learners, from children in pre-schools to professionals in varied work environments and from teens in inner-city American schools to eager adult teachers in rural Chinese classrooms. SEHS has international programs in China and New Zealand.

Whether bringing the gift of literacy to the countryside of Jamaica, demystifying mathematics for under privileged Michigan elementary students, creating new ways to train and support employees of Fortune 500 companies, or guiding students and adults toward more productive futures, the impact of our graduates is real and enduring.
