New Virtual Mental Health Resources Free for all Anoka Tech Students

Anoka Technical College has partnered with virtual mental health and wellness provider Mantra Health to deliver free, 24/7 on-demand support for students. Through the platform, students have access to 12 free one-on-one sessions with licensed therapists and many other great resources including:

• Self-care modules
• Emotional wellness coaching
• Peer-to-peer support through Togetherall
• 24/7 crisis support

“Mental health is a crucial factor in student success, especially given that over 63% of our students have experienced a mental health diagnosis in their lifetime,” says Anoka Tech counselor Erica Stene-Winkler. “With Mantra Health, students now have even more access to support whenever they need it. These resources work hand-in-hand with Counseling Services to ensure we’re providing the care and tools our students need to live well both in and out of the classroom. I hope students feel encouraged to make the most of this valuable resource.”

Access to Mantra is provided through Minnesota State initiative. The platform is another tool available to Anoka Tech students. The tool works alongside mental health and wellbeing support provided through the college’s Counseling Services office.

Anoka Tech has also compiled a list of college and community resources to help students tackle challenges outside the classroom – like food and housing insecurity – that may impact their academic success.
