Advisory Committee

Since the inception of the OPCSMH, the OPCSMH has understood the value of teamwork and collaboration. The OPCSMH also recognizes that student counseling services are not the only stakeholders responsible for addressing suicide prevention and mental health on campus. It needs to be a comprehensive, multidimensional campus-wide effort.

The OPCSMH Advisory Committee is committed to fostering an inclusive and equitable voice for Ohio campuses, their partners, and contributors. We believe that each individual’s voice, perspective, and experience is a valuable contribution to enhancing mental health and well-being. We seek to make a positive impact within the higher education community in the state of Ohio.
