Gatekeepers for mental health
Gatekeeper Training for staff members and teaching assistants and other faculty will be presented three times in July.
Offered as part of a study sponsored by the Division of Student Affairs, the free training provides skills and knowledge to comfortably and confidently speak with students about mental health concerns and refer them to appropriate mental health resources. The term gatekeeper derives from the fact that TAs, faculty and staff often serve as students gateways to help.
Here is the upcoming schedule (all sessions to be held at the on the Davis campus)::
- Tuesday, July 23 10 a.m.-noon
- Thursday, July 25 10 a.m.-noon
- Tuesday, July 30 10 a.m.-noon
If you or your department is interested in a training, send an email to the study team, specifying one training date and time. In return, you will receive an email from Support 91心頭D Wellness Study with the subject line, Invitation to a 91心頭 Davis Pilot Study of Training to Support Student Mental Health, and instructions for completing a pretraining questionnaire.
