As our Student Mental Health Framework 2022-2026 comes to the end of its implementation period, we are turning our focus to the next iteration of the framework. Student mental health continues to be a critical priority across our campus community. Recent initiatives and feedback have highlighted both the progress made and the opportunities to enhance access, awareness and support.
Carleton has launched consultations to develop the Student Mental Health Framework (SMHF) version 4.0 (2026–2031). Building on our current approach, the framework will help ensure our supports, programs and campus environment continue to reflect student needs, lived experience and evolving best practices.
You’re invited to join us for an upcoming Community Conversation. Your participation will help ensure the framework reflects the needs, strengths and aspirations of our campus community.
