PUBLISHED 7:47 PM CDT Apr. 15, 2022AUSTIN, Texas — College can be one of the most overwhelming experiences in a young adult’s life. UT-Austin junior, Caroline Thomas, is doing her part to make sure there're spaces on campus to talk about it.
Tomans is one of 10 students involved in the development of the pilot program, the Longhorn Share Project. The trained support specialists lead free weekly groups on a wide range of topics, from loneliness to identity and body image. According to the National College Health Assessment , nearly 60% of students here experienced moderate to serious psychological distress, such as anxiety and loneliness, in the past year. Project coordinator Adrian Lancaster believes this non-clinical peer support program can help with those issues.
