The “UT Wellness: Know How, Know Now” Challenge gives faculty and staff practical, life-saving skills that can help to recognize the signs of a crisis, respond with confidence and connect others with the help they need.
The three self-paced K@TE trainings cover important wellness topics: mental health warning signs, recognizing and responding to opioid overdose, and suicide prevention.
Now through Saturday, Oct. 10, campuses and institutes will compete to see which can achieve the highest employee participation rate. Each completed K@TE module adds to a campus or institute’s chance to win a lunch with system and campus leadership — and, of course, bragging rights.
Employees who complete all three trainings during the challenge will receive a digital certificate and be entered into one of 10 systemwide prize drawings for $50 gift cards and UT Wellness blankets.
These trainings provide practical tools to help build a more prepared and supportive UT community.
The system-wide mental health warning signs training was created with the help of Allison Castleman, UT Martin’s director of the Office of Student Health Services.
