MENTAL HEALTH

Commission Mission

The Mental Health Commission is focused on destigmatizing conversations around mental health on campus to help normalize and strengthen our students’ relationships with their mental health. Every Anteater should feel safe and comfortable asking for help from our university – adequate services should always be available to students that need it. Responsible for events and initiatives focused on different topics within the field of mental health and different resources available on and off campus, including the annual Reclaim Mental Health Conference, the Mental Health Commission aims to promote a UCI where Anteaters can comfortably speak about their mental health journeys and recognize they’re not alone.

The Mental Health Commission will also be responsible for advising the President on campus matters related to mental health and regularly interfacing with Campus Recreation, the Counseling Center, the Disability Services Center, and other campus partners. Additionally, alongside other relevant ASUCI commissions, the Mental Health Commission will manage the Exploring Mental Health series, where students, staff, faculty, and community members can have a place to share their mental health journeys and learn from each other in the name of destigmatizing mental health.
