If you do not attend UConn then please consider liking this page to support our campaign of raising mental health awareness!
Our group’s main goal is to help raise awareness of mental health issues that commonly affect college students, including anxiety and depression. Through our project, we hope to eliminate negative associations and stigmas associated with mental health issues. We believe that everyone should feel safe and comfortable at their homes away from home and should be able to receive the help they need, completely free of judgment. Through outreach and awareness to the UConn community, we hope to help foster an environment that makes each and every student feel safe and welcome. Each of us is affected by mental health in some way--let's make a difference!
This campaign is through the Comm 3100 Persuasion class.
