Saban supports You're Not Alone campaign on campus

By outreach@cw.ua.edu (CW Staff)

Select Greek organizations at the University of Alabama created You’re Not Alone, a campaign aiming to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention.

Alpha Chi Omega, Kappa Alpha Theta, Alpha Kappa Lambda, Pi Kappa Phi and Sigma Tau Gamma deemed April 4-9 a Mental Health Awareness Week, and on Wednesday, You’re Not Alone hosted a Mental Health Awareness Seminar where football coach Nick Saban showed his support.

“Just to listen and have a presence sometimes with somebody is all they need to satisfy their loneliness and to know that somebody else cares,” Saban said. “So let’s do something to care for someone else.”

You’re Not Alone provided the video below for those who were unable to make it to the seminar.

Thank you to all who attended the Mental Health Awareness Seminar tonight!
