HOiST: Student Mental Health
HOiST (Helping Our Students Thrive) is a series of workshops around creating a broader support network for our students. Each session is led by a campus expert who will help facilitate a conversation around what campus resources are available and what appropriate levels of helping might look like for those working outside of that specialized area. Participants will leave with resources they can use in their own work with students. Delivered in partnership between the ECU Center for Student Success, University Writing Program, and Office for Faculty Excellence. During this session participants will learn about mental health resources on campus, appropriate referral processes, and examples of how faculty and staff can support students who may have struggling with mental health concerns and need additional services. The link to join this session is provided in the registration survey below and can be found at https://ofe.ecu.edu/office-for-faculty-excellence/ofe-sessions/hoist-helping-our-students-thrive/.
