September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, a time to come together as a community and prioritize mental health. At °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ, we believe in the power of connection and the importance of open conversations and belonging. This month, we encourage students, staff, and faculty to check in with themselves and each other, learn the warning signs, and understand the resources available both on and off campus. Remember, you don't have to be a mental health expert to make a difference; sometimes, the simple act of listening can be the most powerful tool.
