The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention-produced film It’s Real: College Students and Mental Health is designed to raise awareness about mental health issues commonly experienced by students.

By featuring real stories and experiences, It’s Real conveys that depression and other mental health conditions are real illnesses that can be managed through specific treatments and interventions. It encourages students to be mindful of the state of their mental health, to acknowledge and recognize when they are struggling, and to take steps to seek help.

This screening of the documentary will be followed with a live panel discussion and practical tips for supporting someone with mental health conditions.
