About the Webinar
Join us for a timely and essential conversation as we close out the academic year and prepare for summer planning. This collaborative webinar—presented by the American Council on Education (ACE), Association for University and College Counseling Center Directors (AUCCCD), and The Jed Foundation—brings together three leading voices in mental health advocacy and trauma-informed care to explore the critical intersection of policy, practice, and student well-being.
As mental health challenges continue to impact college campuses nationwide, the policies we create at federal, system, and institutional levels have never been more important. This webinar will examine:
-
Why trauma-informed approaches matter in mental health policy development
-
Federal, system, and institutional policy landscapes and their impact on student mental health services
-
Practical strategies for integrating trauma-informed principles into policy advocacy and campus practice
-
Current legislative opportunities, including how to advocate effectively with your congressional representatives
Whether you’re a counseling center professional, administrator, student affairs leader, or mental health advocate, this webinar offers valuable insights as we reflect on the academic year and strategically plan for the months ahead.
