Join Active Minds

Did you know 1 in 4 Americans age 18 to 22 are affected by a mental illness? Or that suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death in college students? Or that 60% of students admit to being so stressed on 1 or more occasions that they were unable to complete their work.


Active Minds at Maryland is a student-run organization that focuses on mental health awareness and advocacy on campus. Our members are students interested in psychology/medicine/public health, students with friends or family with a mental illness, or students who are struggling with a mental health disorders themselves. This semester, UMD is hosting Active Minds' 8th national conference, so our members can be involved with the organization at the national level.


Our meetings are every Thursday at 7PM in the Thurgood Marshall room on the 2nd floor of Stamp. Visit our office, 0208R in the Student Involvement Suite or visit our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/ActiveMindsAtMaryland
