Connecting Badgers Podcast

Connecting Badgers

UHS UW-Madison
Connecting Badgers aims to enhance learning and student success by promoting, protecting & restoring mental health while acknowledging that stigma and health disparities exist and can be barriers to care. We provide students with evidence based tips & tools grounded from feminist and trauma informed approaches to increase mental health literacy, which is the knowledge & beliefs about mental health concerns that aid in recognition, management and prevention.
