Description:
Are you interested in supporting students through mental health challenges? Do you hope to make a wider impact on campus? If any of the above speaks to you, then check out Lean on Me - UMD! We are proud to introduce Lean On Me UMD. a new, anonymous, peer-to-peer text line for UMD students to seek non-crisis counseling. Lean On Me was founded in 2017 by MIT students and already has chapters at eight other universities around the country. Too often, students will not seek out the support they need from mental health services as they find services inaccessible or feel that their problems are not important enough to warrant reaching out. Lean On Me - UMD will complement existing services at UMD with a mission to lower the barrier to entry for seeking emotional support by being anonymous, highly accessible, and involved in the community. We are recruiting for both supporters and leadership for this upcoming 2020-2021 year!
