When Cowboys are united, we can accomplish great things!
College is a time of growth, but many students face real mental health challenges. Nearly 46% of college-aged students meet the criteria for at least one mental health condition. For many, asking for help is only the first step. The next step is making sure care is available, affordable, and easy to access when they need it. Bella Ridener and the Cowboys Care Ambassadors are making sure students at OSU know that care is within reach.
Through University Counseling Services, students can access counseling and other mental health resources designed to help them navigate challenges and thrive during their college experience.
Many of these expanded services have been made possible through the support of Cowboys United for Mental Health donors, whose generosity is helping ensure more students have access to care when it matters most.
