Supporting Students in Distress

University can be a difficult time for many students, and postsecondary intuitions are witnessing an increase in students presenting with complex needs, particularly relating to mental health. The Supporting Students in Distress workshop is intended to equip faculty and staff with practical strategies and information on how to effectively help a student presenting with mental health difficulties. In this session, participants will learn how to apply the 4R Model (Recognize, Respond, Refer and Report/Reflect) to supporting students who may be in distress or are experiencing a mental health emergency.
