Student Alliance for Mental Health (SAMH)

Working from an anti-oppressive lens, SAMH strives to expand our understanding of mental health and diversify the discussions we hold around it.

Through our collaboration with Carleton Administration, SAMH also advocates to improve mental health services.

Our Story

MISSION STATEMENT

The Student Alliance for Mental Health strives to facilitate community discussion around mental health & illness.

CORE VALUES

Centering those with lived experience.

Working through an intersectional and anti-oppressive approach to expand our understanding of mental health and diversify the discussions we hold around it.

The belief that mental health services should be available and easily accessible for all.

MANDATE

Support, Educate

SAMH brings students together to discuss various topics related to mental health, to share their lived experience and hear about others’, and to engage in self-care activities in an accepting environment. In addition, we promote on- and off-campus services to help connect students to resources.

Advocate

Through our collaboration with Carleton administration, SAMH also advocates with and for students to improve mental health on a systemic level. In the past, we successfully passed a referendum to increase the amount of counsellors in Health and Counselling Services. Since then, we have continued to provide input on Carleton’s updated mental health framework.
