	Description:		The movement to bring awareness to mental illness, while important year-round, is particularly relevant during May--Mental Health Awareness Month. Millions of people live with a mental health condition including individuals who work in Student Affairs. Yet, as we discuss mental illness concerns on campus, we often primarily focus on the needs of students, and less on the needs of student affairs educators. On this episode of Student Affairs Live, co-host Heather Shea Gasser discusses how we can address the stigma around mental health in student affairs through awareness, education, and action with ACPA Commission for Counseling and Psychological Services (CCAPS) Chair, Dwaine Campbell, as well as Kristen Abell and Sue Caulfield, co-founders of an online series dedicated to highlighting mental illness in student affairs professionals - Committed. Abell and Caulfield worked with other student affairs professionals to publish Committed to Mental Health in Student Affairs, an e-book collection of stories from these professionals previously featured on The Student Affairs Collective.
