Don’t miss Fresh Check Day! The festive fall fair combines free food, games and hands-on activities with learning about mental health resources. Students will be treated to lunch by Spuds and North End Deli, play games, and learn about mental health at interactive booths hosted by different student clubs. Look forward to activities like yoga, meditation, and more.
The primary goals of Fresh Check Day are:
- To introduce students to the mental health resources and programs that exist on campus, in the community, and on a national level,
- Reduce stigma and misconceptions around mental health and suicide that often deter individuals from seeking help,
- Empower peers to be gatekeepers by understanding warning signs and knowing what to do if a friend is exhibiting signs of suicide or a mental health concern,
- Increase a willingness to ask for help if experiencing emotional distress.
The event will be held outside on the cafeteria green. In the case of poor weather, it will be moved inside to the Multi-Purpose Room.
