    Fresh Check Day 2023 – Volunteers Needed

    Looking to participate in an uplifting and supportive event?!   

    On Saturday, April 22, 2023, the UConn Suicide Prevention Committee will again host Fresh Check Day on the Student Union Mall.  

    Fresh Check brings together partners across the University community to provide an uplifting mental health promotion and suicide prevention event.  The event is scheduled to run from 1:00-4:00 with set up beginning at 11:30 and break down between 4-5:00.   There will be multiple tents and tables to allow for interactive activities and giveaways, animals from the Department of Animal Sciences, Power Posse with music from the Student Union Terrace and the Dairy Bar Truck all intended to engage and support UConn students.   

    There are lots of volunteer options available from set up to breakdown or supporting some of the booths.  For those interested in volunteering please sign up here Volunteer to be a part of Storrs' Fresh Check Day! | Suicide Prevention Resources (uconn.edu).
