UNLV Project Wellness: Putting the Spotlight on Mental Health

A student-led organization from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, is revolutionizing the way colleges and universities look at mental health. Part of Project Wellness’ winning strategy is removing barriers to access. Everyone is welcome and no one is turned away. Because of that, Project Wellness has quickly grown into a network of more than 700 students who look out for each other when the going gets tough. And the plan is to continue expanding, with newly minted partnerships involving the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine, Boyd School of Law, and Graduate College.
