From the Paper:

"By offering psychological as well as physical services, the center strives to make sure that the students come to school ready to learn. Though the center focuses on physical health, it recognizes that psychosocial problems often are what keep students from attending school. Therefore, these services recognize that the student is a whole person, not just a physical body.
"This strategy prepares the students for success. The strong focus on the whole person, the center allows an environment that is beneficial for those who are active physically and need a small amount of physical help to those who are having difficult social problems."
