## Caption

This Thursday, October 7, is #NationalDepressionScreeningDay, and BU is inviting students, faculty, and staff to take a free, confidential screening (either online or in-person) that can identify those experiencing depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and other mental health issues. The purpose of the day is to elevate the importance of mental health, organizers say, and the role it plays in a person’s ability to thrive. The event is held during Mental Illness Awareness Week, which ends October 9. This is the 13th year BU has offered the questionnaire.

The mini mental-health checkup, which takes less than two minutes to complete, will be available both online (all day) and at the George Sherman Union Link (from 11:30 am to 3:30 pm). At the GSU, counselors will be on hand to chat with individuals about the results and connect people to relevant resources on campus.
