    Introduction:

  The individual needs peace, health and effectiveness in biological, psychological, and social aspects in order to enjoy a successful life. Quick social –cultural changes result in family construct changes, complexity and spreading of human communication networks, and a variety of information resources.

  Communities that adults and teenagers face today are filled with problems and challenges we must try to overcome. The university and collegian environment consists of young educated people of society who are faced with numerous challenges and changes. And in order to provide mental, psychological, social, and overall support of students and collegian members, we need the support and cooperation of members of society in the areas of communication, critical thinking, developing skills and capabilities for conscious decision making, ability to deal with routine stresses and emotions, increasing self efficacy, creating effective relationships, and attaining other social- psychological capabilities. The first year at the university is a difficult year of growth, development, and adjustment for students. Their separation from family and adaptation to the university and dormitory environment can be very stressful.
