Accountability Meeting Update: August 2021

Aug. 26, 2021

Presenter: Dr. Alex Howard

Related accountability review points:

  • TeleHealth services that aid and support our vision of increasing accessibility to Black Medical Professionals with no student fee increase.
  • Expand access to more diverse mental health providers through our expanded use of telehealth services.

Summary of presentation:

  • The presentation centered on the following departments: Counseling and Psychological Services; M.S. Shook Student Health Service; and Wellness and Prevention Services.
  • The content of the presentation focused on services provided by these departments, as well as a demographic breakdown of those served during the academic year 2020-21 — a year in which the overwhelming majority of services were provided via telehealth.
  • Additionally, a review of existing and emerging strategies to increase diversity and representation within these departments was provided.

Next steps:

  • App State will maintain its commitment to understanding the needs of students, providing services directly or when appropriate, facilitating an efficient and effective referral, developing and modifying policies/processes, being good stewards of student fees, and maintaining honesty and transparency.
