Outreach Request Form

For the Spring semester of 2013, Outreach services provided through the CSDC will be limited due to staffing shortages and the need to focus on clinical services. Many of the programs most frequently offered will still be available and presented by our program assistants. As these programs are determined, a list will be provided.

If you have not received a response after 7 days from the date your request was submitted, please contact Melinda Morgan, Coordinator of Outreach, at 568-6552 or morganma@jmu.edu. You may also contact Melinda if you have additional questions/requests.

Fields designated with an asterisk are required. Submissions with blank required fields will not properly transmit to CSDC.

Please complete one form for each program topic requested. Please make all requests for programs at least two weeks in advance of the date of the program. The latest a program will be conducted is from 8-9 pm.
