Mental Health Awareness Month 2025

"Mental Health Awareness" a green ribbon

In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month 2025, the Office of Engagement, Discovery, and Global Education (EDGE) invites our academic community to reflect on the importance of mental well-being. We acknowledge that managing academic, professional, and personal responsibilities can be challenging at times.

Mental health is not a secondary concern—it is a foundation for thriving in both learning and life. At Ohio State, a wide range of confidential and accessible support services are available for both students and faculty/staff. We encourage you to explore the many resources listed below and to share them with peers and colleagues who may benefit.

Taking care of your mental health is not a sign of weakness, but a powerful step toward resilience, clarity, and growth.
