Counseling Services partners with colleagues, departments, and student groups across campus to promote mental health and wellbeing. Our recurring events, campaigns, and outreach programming focus on destigmatizing the topic of mental health, encouraging self-care, and bringing awareness to some of the wellness issues our campus community faces.
Mental Health Awareness Month
Mental Health Awareness Month (MHAM) is nationally recognized every May. The purpose of MHM is to raise awareness of the importance of mental health, provide educational opportunites and coping strategies to the campus community, and reduce the stigma that surrounds mental illnesses and help-seeking. Counseling Services invites and welcomes many campus partners to join us in programmatic efforts to promote mental health.

Confidentiality Clarification

Designation reporting requirements under Title IX are suspended for this event, which means students/faculty/staff are NOT required to report instances of sexual or domestic violence that are disclosed during any portion of the event.
-
Mandatory reporting requirements (state of Oregon mandate) remain in effect for this event, which means students/faculty/staff that are mandatory reporters MUST REPORT instances of child abuse. *If a current adult discloses abuse that occurred when they were a child, this is only reportable if there is reasonable suspicion that a child is currently at risk.
If you have questions regarding Take Back the Night, reach out to:
UO Women’s Center Program Director, Sarah Doty at sdoty@uoregon.edu
The Women’s Center is committed to hosting trauma-informed events that honor intersectional experiences, center marginalized voices, and foster a culture of accountability and continuous learning. We believe that while survivor experiences are deeply personal, healing and prevention are collective efforts. We invite you to join us in this work.
