College students of all ages are more distressed than ever before and increasing numbers are enrolling with mental-health histories. While institutions were already under pressure to meet students' mental-health needs, the current events have made the situation more dire. Counseling-center directors and other clinicians who work with students are seeing a significant increase in anxiety, depression, and behavioral disorders, prompting college leaders to look for strategies to support mental health.
The Chronicle report Building Students' Resilience tackles the challenges colleges face with new demands for counseling and mental health support and offers guidance for how your staff and faculty can best support resilience and well-being.
