How to Request Documentation
If you need a letter verifying that you are receiving services through the MHWC, you can use the form below to request a letter from us. (For example: You may be asked for this kind of letter as documentation if you are requesting an excused withdrawal from a class.)

- If necessary, a counselor can submit the form on a student's behalf.
