Survey: Student-Athletes Want Mental Health Care

Jason Scott Headshot

A survey of student-athletes at Ohio University found that 87 percent of the school’s student-athletes believe that “one or more of their teammates could benefit from access to a sports psychologist.”

The survey, conducted by the school’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, contributed to a bill adopted by the Student Senate, which calls for increased collaboration between academics and athletics in support of the mental health needs of student-athletes. According to the student-run newspaper The Post, the bill also calls for the creation of a conference committee “to discuss specialized mental health counseling for other groups on campus.”
