Being a student can be stressful enough, but trying to juggle schoolwork and other responsibilities while experiencing mental illness can make it that much harder. But students can work through many challenges and still perform well in school. This comprehensive guide discusses and details a number of mental health issues, including information on how they impact academic performance and where to find help.
As a new academic year begins, we are thrilled to share the culmination of the work of the ACPA/NASPA Professional Competencies Task Force. We are so thankful for the work of the Task Force and for the feedback received from thousands of members at both associations.
ACPA-College Student Educators International and the members of the ACPA Sexual Violence Task Force are pleased to release "Beyond Compliance: Addressing Sexual Violence in Higher Education". This free resource for our members is intended to complement and move beyond the current compliance-heavy focus of courts, legislatures, and media response to sexual violence on college campus toward a more holistic approach that includes prevention.
