Virtual Self-Care Kit for Students Available Now

October 27, 2021 / Our Nighthawks

In support of student wellness and mental health needs, NOVA’s Instructional and Student Services Committee has collaborated with The Office of Wellness and Mental Health to create a Virtual Self-Care Kit. This kit includes wellness strategies, like coloring and video challenges; e-resources, such as apps and social-emotional activities; NOVA resources and counseling referral information that students can access as needed. OWMH requests faculty and staff assistance in promotion of this kit via email signatures, syllabi and other publications and documents accessible to students. Addressing these needs is critical to student success inside the classroom and out, and early intervention increases student autonomy and aids in crisis prevention and positive outcomes.
