“Alpha sigma tau national foundation funded educational programs offered by the alpha sigma tau sorority in the following areas: mindwise seventy-five percent of behavioral health conditions are diagnosed by the age of 24. Initial symptoms often appear during the college years, when exploratory behaviors with substances and alcohol also begin. The college years are an exciting time of personal growth, but they can also bring academic, social, and financial pressures, which can worsen underlying mental health and substance use issues. By taking a brief mindwise screening, students can learn if they have a behavioral health issue and learn signs and symptoms. Behavioral health which includes mental health, substance use, and more is a key part of your overall well-being. Brief screenings are the quickest way to determine if you or someone you care about should connect with a behavioral health professional. Think of these as a checkup from your neck up. This program is completely anonymous and confidential, and immediately following the brief questionnaire you will see your results, recommendations, and key resources. New and collegiate members can take the screening on their phone, a laptop, or tablet anonymously and from the privacy of their own residence hall room. Because of this, mindwise screenings reach students who might be hesitant to contact a college counselor or therapist directly.
