A Guide to Supporting Students in Distress was prepared on behalf of OCAD University as a part of the Mental Health Innovation Fund. This guide is the result of a campus wide effort to promote mental health and well-being at OCAD University under the leadership of the OCAD University Mental Health Steering Committee. This guide aims to offer clear guidance and direction on how to support students in emotional and/ or mental health distress at OCAD University.
This guide targets front-line staff, faculty members and student leaders, who directly interact with students as a part of their roles and responsibilities within OCAD University.
