Episode 13: Student mental health
Description
Mental health has always been a key indicator of college completion, and highly-talented students are not reaching their potential because they do not have access to the same supports as their peers.
Dr. Zainab Okolo, strategy officer at Lumina Foundation, joins host Dr. Rick Smith to talk about the student mental health crisis and the correlating college enrollment crisis. They discuss challenges and opportunities around mental health care and ways forward to support students and create healthy communities on campus.
Dr. Okolo will give a keynote speech, National Mental Health Landscape and Strategies for Creating Sustainable Change, at CPE’s Student Success Summit. The summit will take place Feb. 27-28 at the University of Kentucky Gatton Student Center. Learn more and register here: https://cpe.ky.gov/studentsuccess/index.html.
