Introduction to Mental Health in Collegiate Athletics 

By: Jalyn Tse

While many have been investigating mental health regarding collegiate athletes, there needs to be a more proactive initiative to combating this problem. There is a clear understanding across all colleges that there is a lack of awareness and lack of support for those struggling. As a coach and mentor to many athletes, it is important that YOU are playing a supportive and perceptive role in each of your student-athletes' lives. This will ultimately result in a healthier and more productive student-athlete in the classroom, at practice and in games.
