Mental Health Care Access Expanded to 200,000 SUNY Students

Governor Kathy Hochul has announced State University of New York campuses are investing nearly $10 million in annual State funding to increase their mental health services and support for students, faculty, and staff. This investment will expand services at 28 campuses, support more than 200,000 students, and build on its Statewide Tele-Psychiatry Network (STPN) and new tele-counseling option for community colleges.

“We are making critical investments to ensure every New Yorker has access to high-quality mental health services,” Governor Hochul said. “College can be a stressful and overwhelming time, and this funding will expand mental health services on college campuses so students can focus on just being students.”
