The Wellness Center will host the 11th annual Race Against Stigma<\/strong> (5K) on Saturday, Sept. 21. Registration is free for all Hudson Valley Community College students!<\/strong><\/p>\n Mental health issues will affect more than one in every five Americans this year, and it is common for mental health concerns to arise during the college years. Depression, anxiety, and other serious mental health concerns are increasingly common among college and university students in the United States.<\/p>\n Hudson Valley Community College, Center for Counseling, Project Aware and the Equinox Insight Program recognize that the negative stigma associated with mental health concerns can be what stops many students from seeking the help that they truly need. Stigma must, and can be exposed and overcome. The groups have combined this outreach with the physical activity of a 5K Race & Fun Walk to literally Race Away Stigma that can surround mental health concerns both in our local community and nationwide.<\/p>\n Registration Fees and Information<\/strong> T-shirt (while supplies last), raffle prizes, refreshments and awards included in fee.<\/p>\n Print and Mail Registration Form<\/a><\/p>\n Register Online<\/a><\/p>\n For more information, contact: <\/p>\n Published:<\/strong>\u00a0Tue, 17 Sep 2019 12:15:12 +0000 by\u00a0l.ellis<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Wellness Center will host the 11th annual Race Against Stigma (5K) on Saturday, Sept. 21.
