About Us
The School of Social Work recognizes the COVID-19 global pandemic has impacted the mental health and wellness of virtually all individuals. In particular, students have faced increases in anxiety, feelings of loneliness, and depression. In response to these mental health and wellness consequences, the School of Social Work has taken steps to accommodate, support, and provide mental health and wellness assistance to those students in need.
A mental health and wellness fund was created in December 2021 to assist students with a mental health focus and to provide scholarships, mental health and wellness services, and peer support services. In this short time period, the fund has already raised approximately $70,000 and we are proud that donations received during GiveUNC will benefit this fund focused on the mental health and wellness of our students.
