Navigating campus care: a guide to evaluating and enhancing your college’s mental health resources
Enhance your mental health resources
Student mental health continues to prevail as a top priority – and risk – on college and university campuses. Higher education leaders have implemented various resources and services to help with the crisis surrounding students’ mental well-being. However, without a proper student wellness risk assessment, gaps in the support model could impact an institution’s enrollment, retention, student success outcomes, compliance and reputation.
The objective of this Navigating campus care guide is to:
- Describe approaches for evaluating an institution’s mental health resources
- Express why having adequate resources are critical to student well-being
- Demonstrate how an assessment can help the institution overall
