Featuring contributed chapters written by mental health professionals, the book merges theory, empirical study, and case studies to provide tailored strategies for creating an inclusive and healthy campus atmosphere for all students.

It helps readers understand the complex realities of community college learners’ mental health and well-being, reinforcing the critical role of mental health in educational success and student retention.
