The UT Counseling and Mental Health Center, is asking for your help in promoting mental health on campus!

We’re creating a short video on how students can reach out to help a friend who’s struggling with a mental health concern.  Have you yourself helped a friend who was going through a tough time with something like stress, depression, anxiety etc? OR did a friend help you? If so, we’d love to hear your stories and share them with other students. We will select some stories to be part of this video that will be featured on our website.

Please read the attached document  Student_PSA_Video_Submission[1] for details on how to submit your story. You may either send an email or record your story. All entries are due on April 18, 2011. Students will be notified if their story is selected.

If you have questions about this video, please contact Marian Trattner, Coordinator for the Be That One Suicide Prevention Program, UT Counseling and Mental Health Center, at (512)475-6962 or mtrattner@austin.utexas.edu

Thank you for helping to make a difference in the lives of students and our campus community.
