Initiative on wellbeing at Harvard

Initiative on Wellbeing at Harvard

In February 2019, Provost Alan Garber convened a Task Force for Managing Student Mental Health to examine the state of student mental health at Harvard, the resources and supports that are available to students, and the actions the University might undertake to improve their mental health.

Report of the Task Force on Managing Student Mental Health

The Task Force completed their work in July 2020 and prepared a report with recommendations that include launching a mental health awareness and culture change campaign; exploring ways to make Counseling and Mental Health Services more accessible; and examining how to address mental health, sexual climate, inclusiveness, isolation, and belonging holistically.

“You don’t need to wait to put your wellbeing first or to get the support and care you need.”
