University of Massachusetts/Amherst TO HOST FRESH CHECK DAY PROGRAM

Expo-like Event Brings the Community Together to Check-In on College Students' Mental Health

UMass/Amherst will host Fresh Check Day— a concept created by The Jordan Porco Foundation and designed to bring the whole campus community together to "check-in" on the mental health and wellness of college students. The event is free and has been organized by the Campus Life and Wellbeing Collaborative and UMass/Amherst JED Committee with collaborating campus departments, student volunteers, and representatives of The Jordan Porco Foundation.

UMass Amherst Fresh Check Day will take place April 19, 2002, from 2p.m. until 5 p.m.  The Campus Center Auditorium will be transformed into an expo-like atmosphere to bring together interactive exhibits combined with food, prizes, and giveaways. The booths feature peer-to peer messaging in a positive, community-focused setting. This year's event will include music and entertainment. Food will be provided by UMass Dining/Catering.
