LEGEND

Student well-being and good mental health

are critical foundations for student success.

We are committed to creating a culture of

caring and support, and recognize that

improving the health of our campus is a

collective effort and shared commitment.

Our community of staff members, Faculty,

and students are equipped with

information about how to identify, respond

and refer a student in distress.

Mental Health and Wellness

At McMaster University, we are

committed to taking action to prevent and

respond to sexual violence through

training delivery, active programming and

critical messaging. We place the highest

priority on survivor safety and ensuring

that the campus is a welcoming, safe, and

inclusive environment for all members of

our community.

All events sanctioned by McMaster

University during Welcome Week are

alcohol-free to promote the safety and

well-being of our students. Students who

choose to drink alcohol during Welcome

Week and orientation are encouraged to

do so responsibly, set limits and should be

aware of supports and resources for

addressing over-consumption.

Community engagement is a key part of

who we are as an institution. As our

President shares, “McMaster has

demonstrated throughout its history that

outstanding academic work can be an

extraordinary force for the good of

human beings, society, and nature; so

our task in the future must be to

consolidate and deepen that

contribution.” (Forward with Integrity, 8)

Preventing and Responding to Sexual Violence
