Students and partners will have tables set up with free resources and evidence-based information covering difficult yet potentially life-saving topics like depression, substance abuse, PTSD, anxiety, eating disorders, and many more.  There will even be experts on hand providing free mental health screenings. Refreshments will be served and there will even be door prizes and games.
