Mental Health Awareness:
Professional Development for NYU Faculty & Staff on Identifying and Addressing Mental Health Concerns of NYU Students

Abstract
This
paper investigates the ways in which NYU Faculty and Staff can identify and address the mental health concerns of students. Through user surveys, I spoke with NYU students, faculty, and staff about their mental health so that I can better understand what resources have been made available to them in order to create safe and positive experiences for the benefit of their mental health. This resulted in the creation of an online professional development learning module that educates employees and raises awareness of the mental health issues and concerns of their students, and how these issues can impact learning.
