Mental Health Resources for Faculty and Staff

11/19/2021

February 4, 2022

Colleagues,

For nearly two years, we have been confronted with disruption and uncertainty. We hope for a return to normalcy and see signs of its return, only to be disheartened by another wave of the pandemic. But each time, we have taken on these challenges together.

Now, with the spring semester underway, the pandemic continues to have a profound and exhausting impact on our lives. Many in our community are feeling the cumulative effects of stress, anxiety, and isolation. We want you to know that we care about you, your families, your wellbeing.

In times like these, as you鈥檙e juggling challenges in multiple areas of your life, it鈥檚 that much harder to know where to turn for help. To that end, we would like to remind you of resources that are available to you, your family and those close to you.

We鈥檝e updated the list of well-being resources we shared last fall. We hope it can be a helpful starting point now if needed 鈥� or a valuable reference later 鈥� if you or someone you care about needs support.
