A Long-term View of the Student Mental Health Crisis: Lessons Learned over 25 Year

Presented at the 2015 Depression on College Campuses Conference: Managing the Culture of Stress Speaker: Michael D. Young, PhD, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs (retired), University of California Santa Barbara This keynote address will explore, from the perspective of a university Vice President, the national student mental health crisis that became evident at the turn of the millennium and has continued to grow throughout the past fifteen years. Encompassing not just depression but an array of other diagnoses, the large number of cases has become one of the greatest challenges for campuses across the nation to find ways and resources to provide an environment that supports psychological health and wellness and to enable early identification and response for students in psychological distress. Dr. Young will describe his campus’ organizational responses to the student mental health crisis, showing how the “best practices” developed at the University of California, Santa Barbara have allowed that campus to successfully reach out to students in distress and provide them with appropriate care - and will then discuss how these strategies can be effectively implemented on other campuses as well.
