The Faculty and Staff Assistance Program is sponsoring a depression screening event during the month of October that is open to all staff and faculty, and is designed to increase awareness about depression and utilization of available resources.

Those who participate in the comprehensive screening will be administered a free, confidential depression assessment and given feedback about their scores by one of the FSAP professional counselors. The assessment/feedback takes 30 minutes to complete. Information and resource materials will be available.
