Mental health challenges are ever more prevalent, especially among college students, and the goal of this forum is to get students in a relaxed environment where they feel comfortable enough to talk or ask questions about traditionally sensitive topics. In addition, students will learn about ways to support family and friends who are struggling with mental health.
