The well-being of faculty and staff is at a critical juncture, with stress, workload, and burnout posing significant threats to the core of higher education. A recent national survey revealed that over half of educators have contemplated leaving their positions due to these challenges. It is imperative to prioritize the mental health of educators to establish a nurturing campus environment conducive to personal and student success. This webinar will delve into the pressing issues confronting those on the front lines of the campus mental health crisis. We will explore diverse strategies for supporting faculty and staff, fostering a resilient and thriving academic community.
