Community

 

Drexel is more than a learning community—we are part of our Philadelphia neighborhoods, and our well-being is intertwined. We offer leading health care, wellness facilities and resources for our neighbors, powered by the expertise of Drexel’s schools of Nursing and Health Professions, Medicine, and Public Health, as well as our exceptional faculty and staff university-wide.

When we look after each other, we all thrive.

Public Safety

Public safety is a shared responsibility, and there are many ways for members of the Drexel community to take part. We encourage you to explore the many resources that are available.

COMMUNITY WELLNESS HUB

A partnership between Drexel and the communities of Mantua and Powelton Village, the Community Wellness HUB is a place where everyone can receive health and wellness support, care and resources. The HUB addresses our neighbors’ health needs through education, counseling, health screenings, health care referrals, and clinical treatment for the uninsured--all delivered in a welcoming, compassionate environment.

MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES

Mental and emotional health are just as important as physical health, and all health is interconnected. Drexel provides our community—from children through elders—with behavioral health support at affordable, sliding-scale fees. Residents of Pennsylvania, including students, can access in-person and teletherapy services through Drexel’s Individual, Couple, and Family Therapy Clinic. Therapy is provided by Therapy Interns and supervised by Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists.
