Mental Health Skills Training
Our team includes registered social workers who practice community social work. We offer a range of mental health workshops to support student wellbeing. Support your community by gaining helping skills. If we work together, we have the capacity to support each other. Our training sessions help build community, decrease loneliness, and build capacity to help ourselves and each other.

October 15: Mental Health Check-In
1:00 - 1:30 pm.
Sometimes a quick check-in and chat about how we are doing can go a long way to care for our mental health. This virtual 30-minute workshop will give you practical tools to help you have those conversations and think about how saying how we feel can change how we feel!
