Description
Student mental health in a postsecondary context is an important topic. There has been a lot of work done to explore how to support diverse students to be well including the Post Secondary Standard and the Okanagan Charter. It can be a challenging time for people with a variety of stressors affecting them in different ways across diverse student populations. Today we are joined by Jeff Agate, the Associate Director of Student Support Services at Algonquin College in Ottawa for a conversation about the evolution of supporting Student wellbeing at Algonquin College.
