As mental health continues to decline among athletes despite the influx of many new accessible healthcare services, SOAR brings a new approach to addressing this problem that will lead to real solutions and proven positive results.
"A mental-health crisis is blooming among college students. From the south side of Chicago to rural central Massachusetts, the pervasiveness of mental-health issues on campuses has reached an all-time high. Indeed, a new national survey shows that rates of depression and anxiety among college students are at historic levels. Even scarier, more college students than ever before said that they are thinking about suicide."
The Healthy Minds Study provides a detailed picture of mental health and related issues in college student populations.
"College students are experiencing all-time high rates of depression, anxiety and suicidality, according to the latest Healthy Minds survey. In the annual survey, which received responses from 96,000 U.S. students across 133 campuses during the 2021–22 academic year, 44 percent reported symptoms of depression, 37 percent said they experienced anxiety and 15 percent said they have seriously considered suicide—the highest rates in the survey’s 15-year history."
