Student Well Being Mental Health Task Force Update

The Student Well Being Mental Health Task Force has been working hard this summer on creating a Mental Health Resources Canvas shell! This shell will be available to all students and faculty at the start of the fall semester. The goal of this canvas shell is to provide mental health resources and information that are easily accessible to all students.

The task force has also been discussing the possibility of combining wellness services.

If you have any questions or suggestions on resources to be included in the Canvas shell, please contact Kellee Phillips, student care coordinator at kellee.phillips@llcc.edu or 217-786-2409.
