Join us for the first ever Mental Heath Fairs at DePaul University! There will be three fairs total- with one on Monday 2/7 in the DePaul Center Concourse at the Loop campus, one on Tuesday 2/8 on the 1st Floor of the Lincoln Park Student Center, and one on Thursday 2/10 via Zoom. All students and DePaul community members are welcomed to attend to engage in conversations around mental health and to learn about campus resources.

At the in-person fairs, there will be four interactive learning stations where students learn more about different mental illnesses and their symptoms and can see brain scans of each illness.

There are also two creative artistic stations where students can express their individuality and share their secrets, fears, concerns, as well as positive messages of hope. The hands-on Graffiti Art invites each student to create their own art expression on a large canvas. The Share-A-Secret , where blank postcards are sent to each campus in advance of the fair’s arrival, invites students to write their secrets in advance and then come and look at their own and other secrets put on display at the fair.

Additionally, different departments and organizations will be at the fair to share about specific resources at DePaul University.
