#BE THERE 

If you have a friend who is struggling, seize the awkward and get them help. 
Who do you think Appalachian students turn to when experiencing serious emotional distress? 
We asked our students and their top responses were:

• Family Member 58%
• Friend 57%
• Significant Other 40%
• Roommate 33%

Are you prepared to help a friend if they are experiencing emotional distress?

Chances are, a friend will reach out to you before they reach out to a mental health professional so you should be prepared! FREE ONLINE TRAINING is available to help you help a friend. In 30 minutes you'll learn:

• How to recognize when someone needs help
• How to talk to someone in emotional distress
• Professional resources available to students
