The Office for Diversity and Inclusion believes that your mental health matters. Over the last few years, many people have reported feeling that current events are taking a toll on their mental health, whether from the stress, isolation, and uncertainty in a pandemic or from social justice issues and political unrest. These have been particularly hard on historically minoritized peoples who have increasingly been targeted for harassment and violence.
To that end, we are providing a list of campus-based mental health resources. Whatever you may be going through, UConn has tools, resources, and programs to support you:
