Let’s Talk About Mental Health
As a community, we all experience impacts to our personal lives, careers, and futures. Concerns about safety, stability, personal rights, and more may feel inescapable for many students, faculty, and staff. In times like these, showing up for one another matters. Mental health can thrive in a community that cares.
This October, we are spotlighting some of the programs, events, and resources that make up our BU support system. We encourage you to engage with them this month, and beyond, to support yourself and our community.
World Mental Health Day at BU
Join us on October 9 for World Mental Health Day at BU, where students, faculty, and staff can check in on their mental health and connect with campus resources.
October Events
Numerous wellness activities, community events, and educational programs are available throughout this month to promote connection, wellbeing, and awareness of resources.
Resources to Help Yourself & Others
We encourage you to take small steps to care for yourself and others in our community.
