National Depression Screening Day

National Depression Screening Day logo

University Health Services (UHS) is offering a confidential BRIEF screening for depression. Students can participate in a free, confidential screening that takes only about three minutes. Staff will be on hand to assess responses and speak to those participants whose answers flag depression and suggest resources available that can help. 

The NDSD College Response promotes the prevention, early detection and treatment of prevalent, often under-diagnosed and treatable mental health disorders and alcohol problems through in-person and online screening. For more than a decade, the program has offered affordable and practical risk management tools and information that educate, assess, and connect students with appropriate resources.

For additional resources about mental health and wellness, please visit the UHS Health Education and Wellness website.
