Active Minds at Gannon University

Active Minds at Gannon University This is the Gannon University Chapter of Active minds. We do many events on campus, to change the conversation about mental health. http://www.activeminds.org/

Keep a lookout for our PostSecretU event! Active Minds is the nation’s only nonprofit organization dedicated to utilizing the student voice to raise mental health awareness among college students. The organization develops and supports student-run chapters on colleges and university campuses that promote a dialogue around issues of mental health and educate the entire student body about available resources in and around the campus community.

Happy , Gannon! We are encouraging you this week to reflect on the past, and take into perspective how far you have really come. Use this semester as an example: we have a little less than 3 weeks left until finals. Think of all the knowledge you have gained these past weeks, and how much you have grown as a person! Keep up the hard work— you are doing great!

Also, today is the beginning of “The Dread Project” Challenge. To learn more about it, check out our last post!

We wanted to promote this challenge happening next week called “The Dread Project”. The host, Saleem Reshamwala, will take you through different aspects of dread: what it is, why we feel it, and what we can do to face it.

If you feel like these final few weeks are getting the best of you, or you are simply dreading what is to come (*cough, cough* finals week), then we suggest joining in on this challenge!
