MISSION AND PHILOSOPHY

In the Spring of 1996, faculty and staff from Tulane and Xavier Universities as well as CJPeete residents came together to develop a five-year action plan that would "result in significant, measurable progress towards the economic selfsufficency goal."

An outcome of those meetings was the development of a plan for the Comprehensive Community Counseling Center: A Multi-Disciplinary Living/Learning Project of the Tulane/Xavier University Partnership.

The intended mission of this center was stated as follows:

One of the foundation of Xavier University is the creation of a more just and humane society through the promotion of social justice. Therefore, Xavier will continue to promote projects that bring life and meaning to our Missions as an educational institution. The establishment of the proposed counseling center furthers that end.

The Intended Components For The Counseling Center included

  A community based family education program
  A comprehensive drug/substance abuse counseling education program
 A free clinic for area residents to recieve individual and group counseling
  A service/learning program for area high school residents.
