Trio Student Support Services, Utah Valley State College

For the past two and a half years, Trio Student Support Services at Utah Valley State College has offered Hardiness training to their at-risk students. Hardiness training helps these students to stay in, and to graduate from, school by mastering the many stresses they encounter while they work to develop themselves professionally and personally. The Hardiness Institute is very thankful to UVSC, and UVSC's Director of Trio Student Support Services Mr. Keith Jensen, for making Hardiness Training a reality on their campus and for their continued support of our program, and their effort to provide students with every opportunity to forge a satisfying life.

Summer Bridge Program, University of California, Irvine

In 1999, the University of California, Irvine, under the direction of Dr. Stephen Dominquez, and Dr. Joseph Mestas in Student Support Academic Services, brought Hardiness Training to students in the summer bridge program. Since then, Dr. Dominquez and Dr. Mestas moved to bring Hardiness training to all students on the UCI campus by offering it as an elective. The Hardiness Institute is very thankful to UCI, and Dr. Dominquez and Dr. Mestas, in their support and efforts to bring hardiness training to UCI college students.
