Mental Health
Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. Things that contribute to good mental health include life satisfaction, self-acceptance, a sense of purpose, identity, feeling connected and belonging, empowerment, and resilience.
Our goal is to share best practices in mental health promotion and suicide prevention, connect students to campus and community resources, and help reduce the stigma around asking for help.
