Get Help

Navigating a global pandemic—in the midst of your college studies—is a challenge. Period.

Many of you may be experiencing a range of emotions, thoughts and reactions associated with social distancing and isolation. It can be normal to experience a mix of emotions, uncertainty, anxiety, fear or even calm given the upheaval in our daily lives.

Here at Mines, you are not alone. If you need help dealing with coronavirus-related stress and anxiety—or stress and anxiety of any kind—there are tons of resources available, many of which are accessible virtually from home.

I need help getting food or other basic necessities

Hungry? Unable to leave your residence? We got you. Contact Fighting Hunger at Mines for free food right to your door!
