"It's important to remember that 39% of LGBTQIA+ young people seriously considered attempting suicide as reported by The Trevor Project. This hits close to home for me. Ensuring safety, well-being, and crisis resources for LGBTQIA+ individuals is crucial now more than ever" - Cody Semrau

📆 Mark your calendar for our next virtual forum on June 25th! Billions are spent on student support resources every year, primarily targeting financial and academic needs. Yet, many students continue to face severe mental health challenges that impact their ability to persist. A recent Gallup and Lumina Foundation report, Stressed Out and Stopping Out revealed that 55% of community college students cited emotional stress as the #1 reason for withdrawing, with 44% noting personal mental health as the second. Preventing stop-outs isn’t one-size-fits-all. How can we create supportive ecosystems and implement a tailored philosophy of care without financial waste? ➡ Register here: https://lnkd.in/eW9CU7vZ Join us for a conversation with Chris M. Snoddy, Associate Vice President of Student Success, and Kevin Eddings, Director of Student Accessibility and Support at Oklahoma City Community College (OCCC). They will share their strategies for addressing mental health challenges that impact students' ability to persist and successfully complete their education.

What is the number one reason #communitycollege students cited for withdrawing?  "Emotional stress" (55%) followed by "personal mental health reasons" (44%) according to the 2023 report by Gallup and Lumina Foundation: Stressed Out and Stopping Out: The Mental Health Crisis in Higher Education https://lnkd.in/ecaxSpbA. So, how can you enhance mental health support to prevent stop-out?   That’s what we will be discussing in our upcoming webinar featuring AVP of Student Success, Chris M.
