Require Universities to provide online resources and aid for students mental health
Students mental health has been impacted through the increased use of technology and can also be greatly improved it as well. With the increased use of online classes and education through the use of the internet it is important that student also have access to mental health resources at all times. Many organizations have online help and provide 24hr assistance. However many students don't know they exist so they don't think to look for them.
With the pandemic there are still a large number of students that can not access in person resources due to the risk of compromising their physical health. As a result many students are not getting the help they need or would otherwise get. We want to make online mental health accessible to all students and give them the knowledge to find and access these resources if needed. Requiring colleges providing this information to all new students would be a quick and effective way to help spread this information and make sure everyone has the resources and help they need.
