Wednesday, Feb. 18 | 12-1 p.m. ET

Join us for a lively discussion of a new book, Mental Health in College: What Research Tells Us about Supporting Students from Harvard Education Press. This webinar features NACAC CEO, Angel B. Pérez, Ph.D., and the book’s editor, Alexis Redding, Ed.D., of the Harvard Graduate School of Education.

Mental Health in College explores the full arc of the college experience, starting with the pressures of the admission and financial aid processes as students and their families plan for college. Pérez co-authored a chapter in this book, titled “Mental Health and Well-Being in the Transition to Postsecondary Education,” using NACAC’s research conducted by the Ad Hoc Committee on Mental Health and Equity in The Transition to Postsecondary Education. These findings empower all of us to think deeply about supporting students and their families as they navigate the path to higher education.

For anyone advising students or shaping policy, the research findings presented in this webinar offer important insights and actionable strategies. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn directly from Pérez and Redding about how we can empower all students and help them thrive in the application process and transition to college.

By the end of this webinar, attendees will be able to:

• Interpret key findings from NACAC’s research on mental health and stress in the college admission process.
• Identify opportunities to promote wellbeing in the admission process through one-on-one conversations and changes in institutional policy.
• Consider the role of key stakeholders in the admission process to advocate for changes that support student success and mental health.

• Angel Pérez, CEO, NACAC
• Alexis Redding, Professor, Harvard Graduate School of Education
