SheCare Wellness Pods
Promoting Mental Wellness
Coppin State University has been selected as the fourth HBCU to receive the Boris L. Henson Foundation's Self-Care Wellness Pod, SHECare Wellness Pod, in partnership with Kate Spade, New York. This partnership aims to provide a dedicated wellness space and programs for women and girls on Coppin’s campus and the extended Baltimore community. Coppin State University's commitment to mental health support and desire to extend its reach make it an ideal candidate for this initiative.
The SheCare Wellness Pod at Coppin State University will:
- Offer a sanctuary for female students with frontline mental healthcare, affirming messages, self-regulation tools, and self-care practices.
- Engage with licensed wellness practitioners from the Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation's Let's Talk! Resource Guide to support programming.
- Provide cultural competency training for mental health providers and students.
- Foster a new narrative about mental healthcare on campus.
- Collaborate with community resources to redefine mental health services.
