Sunday is our Mental Health Awareness Game. Here at UNC, we’re committed to opening up the dialogue and prioritizing mental health on and off the field.

What an amazing turnout of coaches and staff for QPR training! We are so grateful to have so many people who want to be equipped to support our student athletes’ mental health! #QPR #SuicidePrevention #MentalHealthMatters

Truly the kindest person I have ever met. I met Eric 2 years ago when I had a question about a donation - from there he went out of his way to be one of the biggest champions for MHPP and I will be forever grateful. We were all so lucky to know him and he will be so missed 🩵

With heavy hearts we bring you this update from the family of Eric Montross.

Rest in peace Big E.

@JowettSophia @uk_sport @_UKCoaching @lborouniversity I really love this! Is there an associated journal article for this infographic? Or references that led to the creation? Doing some work in this space and would love to cite this and dive in deeper.

On March 1, 2022, Katie Meyer died by suicide. For @naomi_girma, this is bigger than soccer.

The @USWNT defender wrote about her best friend’s life and continuing her legacy. ❤️
