National trends show an increase in student mental health concerns during the month of October as well as the fall and winter holiday seasons. The Office of Counseling Services (OCS) has launched the Red Folder Campaign with resources for faculty to support our students by recognizing, responding, and referring when needed. For additional information, please visit the Faculty & Staff website through the OCS website to access the digital Red Folder and complete an interactive leaning module on how to recognize signs of distress, how to effectively intervene, and resources for referral. For hard copy versions of the Red Folder, please contact the Office of Counseling Services at 757-683-4401.
Thank you for all you do to support the success of our students.
