Reforming Mental Health Support for Students and Health Care Workers

Evidence of a mental health crisis is everywhere — from the recent surgeon general advisory about social media’s effects on our youth to the pandemic’s documented impact on medical professionals. To whom does a college student turn for help so far from home? And who cares for the mental health of those caring for us?

Enter Dr. Jessi Gold, a psychiatrist and the University of Tennessee’s first chief wellness officer, who aims to change the way student mental health is addressed on campus.
