World Mental Health Day is Sunday, October 10, and this year’s theme is "Mental health care for all: Let’s make it a reality."

Much has been said and written about mental health lately, and deservedly so. The ups and downs of the pandemic and the return to campus for many are just some of the ways that our mental health has been impacted. While wishing you and yours a long weekend of giving thanks and recharging, we share an assortment of information in support of World Mental Health Day.
