Well-Fest raises awareness for mental health
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrases “sga” and “student government”.
Summary
- This Johns Hopkins News-Letter article covers Well-Fest, a campus event about mental-health resources and awareness.
- The News-Letter reported that Well-Fest took place at Levering Courtyard for the second year and that the SGA hosted volunteers and staff from several mental-health groups.
- The paper reported that organizers began planning a month and a half early and promoted the event for two weeks; SGA officer AJ Tsang said the timing helped support students during midterms and before finals.
- The article adds that CHEW volunteer Xuanjia Fan said students lack awareness of available resources and that advertising could have been stronger.
- The reporter writes that HelWell joined the event after not being invited the previous year, and Alexandra Morrel said students sometimes confuse HelWell with CHEW.
- The paper reported that freshmen who happened upon the event said it helped them learn about campus resources, while Tsang hoped similar events would be held throughout the year.
