SERVICES:
Peer Counseling
Peer Counseling provides 1-on-1 sessions to help fellow students whether it is academic, financial, social, or personal.
SEA CLEAR believes that no one else will be able to understand or help you better than your peers. Your peers understand and may have experienced similar struggles and can help you overcome those struggles.
Through identifying one's own struggle, SEA CLEAR hopes to help you overcome your problems with self determination and motivation and to not only develop you academically, but in many other aspects and to help you gain the advantages and resources needed to make your experience at UCLA successful.

Internship
SEA CLEAR Internship provides the unique opportunity for students who want to learn more about themselves, their peers, their community, and discover what it means to make a difference in their community.
With an emphasis with the self, interns find the importance of their background, culture, gender, and involvements in connection to education and their personal lives. Through fun, creative activities, focused topics, and in-depth discussions that take place on an intimate level in a small group setting, we hope to build a community and personal relationships within this space. Internship encourages improving oneself and challenging existing taboos and beliefs.
