<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Wellness Program Participants:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> UCR is proud to be partnering with Active Minds (activeminds.org), the nation’s leading nonprofit working to change the culture around mental health, to bring Send Silence Packing (activeminds.org/ssp) to our campus. Send Silence Packing
is an exhibit that inspires action around suicide by sending the message that you are not alone, help is available, and we each play a critical role in changing the culture around mental health. We invite you to explore the backpack display on Wednesday, October
25, 2023, from 9 AM to 4 PM, at the Rivera Lawn. Visit Behind the Backpacks (activeminds.org/backpacks), an interactive virtual experience that shares powerful audio stories and engaging, action-oriented ideas for how to change the culture around mental health
on our campus. Please note the display explores themes of mental health and suicide and includes personal stories of people who have been lost to suicide. We will have mental health professionals available to speak to onsite in the event that the experience
evokes distress. If you would like to avoid the display, please follow the “Alternative Route” signs on the outer edge of the display.
