Are you at the point where things are feeling more stressful? Are you concerned about burnout and want to know how to support yourself?

There are many reasons Bulldogs may benefit from TimelyCare but the biggest reason is that you don’t have to hold what you’re experiencing alone. Not in the morning nor late at night. It starts with one TalkNow call through the TimelyCare app or weblink.

Your mental health matters wherever you go.

Every Friday for the rest of the semester students can earn Bulldog Bucks for the Third Spaces they attend. Taking care of yourself can take a lot of different forms. One way to do that is by purchasing the things that you need like food or snacks.

See you in the Third Space on Friday!

Welcome back from Spring Break students! We hope you enjoyed the break and got some much deserved R&R. We’re back this Friday in the Third Space with presentation on Focus & Attention.

Getting back into the swing of things sometimes takes a lot of our energy but usually it starts with our ability to regain focus and attention. Join us to learn more and help yourself finish strong this semester!

Yesterday we had the privilege to spend time with the Spring Drake/KUST cohort to explore and deepen ways to improve mental health resources at Drake and for various colleges in China.

We are always thrilled to learn about ways to grow mental health locally and globally and look forward to partnering with the Drake/KUST cohort in the future.
