Gratitude and connection have positive impacts on our mental health and yet, in our busy culture, it can be challenging to prioritize these practices. The Mental Health Oasis provides a mental health recharge in the moment. Drop by to decompress and connect with crafts, games and popsicles.

UT Turtle Pond

Join a SHARE community through the Longhorn Wellness Center. Peers from African immigrant backgrounds come together to be open and vulnerable about emotions and mental health, topics that are often considered taboo. This, coupled with being a college student, can lead to burnout, isolation, stress, and more. Join this group if you're seeking a safe space where you can feel supported, empowered, and validated in your experiences and identity while gaining communication and self-care skills!

6 to 7 p.m.
