Pablo Campos
World Suicide Prevention Day Presentation (In Person)

Join Health Services for an in-person presentation as we welcome Active Mind's Speaker, Pablo Campos, and acknowledge  on Tuesday, September 10, 2024. Pablo Campos' story takes us from his early childhood when he first showed signs of anxiety and anger, through his teen years, when he experienced addiction, depression, and undiagnosed ADHD that eventually led to a suicide attempt. He now talks publicly about stigma and the lack of education around seeking help that delayed his recovery. He discusses how building a strong network of professionals and loved ones while advocating for his own self-care has set him on a course for mental wellness.

Pre-registration is not required.
