This page lists non-emergency resources around mental health.

Know Your Way Around

• Mental Health at Cornell is a one-stop shop with across-campus resources for yourself, and others.
• Cornell Health has broad resources about physical and mental health well-being.

Both sites are worth exploring. Below we highlight mental health resources that are most frequently utilized.

Learn How to Respond

• Review the "Get Support” and "Help Others" tabs at the top of the Mental Health at Cornell website:
  • “Get Support” lists where to find support for students, and staff and faculty.
  • "Help Others" includes links to training, the movie "Intervene" and information about the different levels of distress.
• CVM has created an infographic that lists where to turn to depending on the level of concern. Feel free to download it and print it to hang in your office or in other common spaces where authorized.

Physical or Mental Health Concern – For Yourself or Someone Else

• The Concern for Others page from Health at Cornell lists information for students who are concerned about another student.
• If you are a faculty or staff member and you are concerned about the physical or mental well-being of a student, follow the advice on the faculty and staff support page from Cornell Health.

If you are unsure what your proper steps should be, call Cornell Health 24/7 at 607-255-5155.
