About Us
The Staff Mental Health Council is a TCNJ Staff Senate Council composed of members from across campus who have a strong interest in supporting the mental wellness of staff. Our purpose is to support the mental wellness of all TCNJ staff in a way that builds compassion and a community of support. We make information, tools, and resources accessible to all staff to enhance their overall mental wellbeing.
