Mental Health First Aid

Training is offered throughout the year to members of the campus community because college students are not immune to mental health challenges. The training prepares faculty, students, and staff to reach out effectively to individuals who may be developing mental health problems and to direct them to appropriate resources.

Crisis Information App

Just in Case is an app that provides crisis information and numbers to have on hand just in case of an emergency. The app also includes free and anonymous mental health self-assessments. Download the app by going to http://codu.co/aca32c on your smartphone.

Mental Health Ally Program

The Mental Health Ally Program is a volunteer program coordinated through the Student Counseling Service that offers education for faculty, staff, and students on how to engage students experiencing emotional or mental health concerns and refer them to mental health and other support services. Mental Health Allies are not trained mental health counselors nor are they expected to provide mental health counseling. Volunteers who complete program requirements will receive ongoing support regarding connecting with students in need and access to resources to share with students. They also will receive a sign and/or a button that they can display to indicate their support and availability for students struggling with emotional and mental health concerns.
