The Center for Collegiate Mental Health found that between 2009 and 2015, colleges saw an increase in counseling center use by up to 40 percent, despite only a 5 percent increase in enrollment. The most common concerns among college students are anxiety and depression. Experts point out that this increase could be attributed to students being more willing to seek help. Seeking mental health services can be particularly challenging for community college students, who tend to be uninsured or rely on public insurance more than four-year college students. Social support from friends, family and other networks also tends to be lower among community college populations, and food and housing challenges are more common. Faculty and staff are crucial in helping refer students to mental health services because they are the ones who are seeing the students on a regular basis. This article describes how community colleges strive to meet the increasing demand for mental health services nationwide.
