The pressure of the post-election results means mental health is more important than ever, according to San Diego City College Mental Health Counselor and Peer Educator Program Coordinator Abby Weisman.

City College offers a free resource to help: a subscription to Headspace for all students and faculty.
Headspace is an app that provides meditation and mindfulness resources. The initiative aims to enhance student and faculty mental well-being.
For students and faculty to take advantage of this opportunity, they must download the Headspace app and use their SDCCD student or work email.
