CINCINNATI – The University of Cincinnati Department of Athletics and its Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) will celebrate Pow6rful Minds Week this week, bringing awareness to mental health and wellness for student-athletes.
"The goal of the Pow6rful Minds Campaign is to bring awareness to mental health. By removing the stigma, recognizing the signs, and providing resources surrounding mental health, we can create a safe place in which our student-athletes can succeed in mind and body," said Erin Evans, UC's SAAC President and a member of the women's golf team. "Mental health is as important as physical health, and our goal is for each student-athlete to achieve personal success building powerful, healthy minds."
The American and UC's SAAC have helped create awareness to mental health issues and the resources available for student-athletes through the Pow6rful Minds initiative. The goal of Pow6rful Minds, and a top priority for SAAC, has been to end the stigma related to seeking help and promoting academic and personal success through a healthy, powerful mind.
