Texas stands at a critical crossroads in advancing student mental health across its colleges and universities. Nearly half of Texas college students report experiencing symptoms of depression or anxiety and more than 140 Texas counties lack a licensed psychologist, compounding disparities. While colleges are doing more than ever to address student mental health, additional coordination, resources, and innovation are needed to close the gaps.
Hosted by Dr. Thaddeus Mantaro, this webinar features Texas higher education leaders, Carlos Cruz, Ed. D. of Dallas College, Leticia Duncan-Brosnan, Ph.D. of Alamo Colleges District, and Ashley Spicer-Runnels, Ed.D. of The Texas State University System. Together they will share their experiences implementing evidence-based mental health strategies. Learn how these senior leaders steward transformational work to support student wellbeing and helped create a new Playbook for Mental Health for the State of Texas.
