As campus leadership teams move to address student mental health during the pandemic, the American Council on Education (ACE) has co-authored, along with several other organizations, a new brief that identifies three major strategies for leaders to consider during the COVID-19 crisis and beyond.

We invite NIRSA professionals, and all members of the 20×30 network, who are looking to support student mental health and wellbeing to explore the new information, including the issue brief and the full publication, along with other resources on the ACE website.

About 20×30

20×30 is a diverse network of people and organizations working together to catalyze action to transform the lives of 20 million students in higher education by 2030 through: improving student wellbeing now to improve their lives for a lifetime; removing health related barriers to learning, academic achievement, and overall student success; closing equity gaps for students who are not thriving; and inspiring and preparing students to become future leaders and engaged citizens who actively build a culture of health and wellbeing for all. NIRSA members can use this network to connect with others and share their ideas at any time by joining an in-person event, webinar, or the online platform.
