Mental Health: Mind Matters Event – Overwhelming Response

submitted by kruzel@augsburg.edu

Due to an overwhelming response to the event: Mental Health: Mind Matters at the Science Museum of Minnesota originally scheduled for Thursday, August 23rd, we have had to close the registration early for the event. However, if you are interested in more information should we schedule a second running of this event, please fill out the form below. We will email you details in the future.

Information on the original event:

One in five US adults aged 18 or older experience mental illness in a given year. Like most schools, Augsburg is seeing the impact of this trend on our students, both in and out of the classroom.

Join the Center for Teaching and Learning and CLASS in their sponsored event viewing the brand new exhibit: Mental Health: Mind Matters at the Science Museum of Minnesota, followed by a discussion led by campus staff/faculty on this topic. “This groundbreaking exhibition aims to build a greater understanding of the importance of mental health and create a safe space for important conversations about mental illness. Hands-on experience through the Mental Health: Mind Matters exhibit brings you closer to the facts, feelings, and issues surrounding this topic that touches so many lives.” – from Science Museum Minnesota website

Attendees will meet at the Science Museum and will be provided free admission to the exhibit. Following the viewing, attendees will engage in a facilitated discussion of how this topic relates to Augsburg University and our students.

Filling out this form does not RSVP you for the event, instead we will provide information should we schedule a follow up event.
