As a student who has attempted suicide twice, I love Fresh Check Day. It is very important for everyone to feel loved and safe.
We loved the experience of Fresh Check Day. I will never forget within twenty minutes of the event, looking around and seeing students everywhere. You could hardly walk through the event. I nearly burst into tears! It was heartwarming! Thank you for all your help.
One student shared that the event gave them the courage to speak to their close friends about their mental health diagnosis and that they cannot wait for next year’s event.

This is the second year I’ve attended Fresh Check Day, and I’ve loved it both times. What I appreciated most is the organization and variety of topics/booths to engage with. I’ve found that the positive atmosphere helps with discussing mental health struggles and encourages us all to be more aware and proactive.
Great way to get us talking. As an attempt survivor, I’m grateful to have experienced this event and to see the strides being made to bring healing to us all! Thank you!!!
Fresh Check Day was an incredible opportunity to engage our campus community in open, meaningful conversations about mental health and well-being. The event fostered a supportive and inclusive atmosphere that empowered students with connect with resources, reduce stigma, and feel seen. We’re proud to be part of such a powerful initiative.
