Baruch’s inaugural Mental Health Awareness Week will be held Monday, March 7, through Friday, March 11, 2022. Events include yoga, mindfulness, depression screening, a “body positivity” celebration, suicide prevention, and more. Details here: https://provost.baruch.cuny.edu/mental-health-awareness-week/.
This year’s theme is “Self-Care and Care for Others.”
This campus-specific week was developed within Baruch’s Suicide Prevention Taskforce and is offered in partnership with the Jed Foundation, a nonprofit organization that collaborates with schools and colleges to help protect the emotional health of, and prevent suicide in, student populations. The concept was expanded to include faculty and staff so the entire Baruch community can get to know the resources that are available to you, as well as the people around the College who are here to assist.
The Counseling Center and the Office Human Resources have planned events that are designed to help you manage stress, recognize warning signs in yourself and others, and more. Some events require registration.
