    Nov 20, 2020 | Canadian Association of College and University Student Services (CACUSS) Campus Mental Health Community of Practice

    The Campus Mental Health Community of Practice from the Canadian Association of College and University Student Services has been conducting surveys on the evolving needs and trends of post-secondary institution (PSI) counselling centres evolving needs over the past two years and in April 2020, the survey was modified to reflect COVID-19 realities. More than 60 PSIs participated in this survey, with representation from each of the ten provinces and territories and colleges (24%). The data compares the COVID-19 related challenges with prior data and information from emerging practices at an international level.

    This report presents synthesized perspectives of campus mental health service professionals, administrations and student affairs administrators on crisis management, how to respond to vulnerable students, ensuring accessibility, inclusion and ethos of social justice from multiple perspectives.
