Suicide Prevention Week Day 3

September 8, 2021 by Monique Aldrete

It’s not too late to join the Suicide Prevention Week challenge.  To get started download the challenge flyer and challenge card!  For today’s challenge we ask that you familiarize yourself with a suicide prevention resource. Visit their website or social media page and like, share or comment to show your support for the work they do. Find a list of resources here, or:

 

  • Visit the website or social media page of your local county behavioral health agency. Many list local crisis resources, training opportunities, and suicide prevention events!
  • Visit SuicideIsPreventable.org and explore the ‘Reach Out’ section which provides a variety of different resources at the county, state, and national level.
  • Download and share the Reach Out card and social media posts.
  • Watch this 60-second PSA created by a California high school student. In “True Colors,” a friend brings color back into someone’s life by getting them the help that they need and staying by their side.
  • Encourage youth ages 12-25 to use art, song, narrative, or film to creatively promote a crisis resource as part of the Hope and Justice contest. Youth can win cash prizes! Entries are due September 31, 2021. For more information visit: DirectingChangeCA.org

 

If you or someone you know needs help, please know that you are not alone. Crisis lines, counselors, intervention programs, and more are available to you, whether you are in crisis yourself or concerned about someone else. For this challenge spend some time learning about one or more of these resources:

 

  • National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-TALK (8255)
  • Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741-741
  • The Trevor Project (for LGBTQ Young People): 1-866-488-7386
  • Friendship Line (for Older Adults): 1-800-971-0016
  • Trans Lifeline: 1-877-565-8860
  • Teen Line: Call 1-800-852-8336 (from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. PST)

For Seniors interested in Occidental College: 2021 Tiger Access Program

August 25, 2021 by Monique Aldrete

This year’s fall Tiger Access Program will again be virtual with the possibility of an in-person program for admitted students in the spring. Interested students can choose to participate in one of two programs either on: Sunday, September 26 or Sunday, October 17. Each of these programs will give students the opportunity to connect with the Admission office, student support services and current students of different majors and backgrounds.

Below is a sample of the virtual programming for our Tiger Access Programs (TAP):

  • Introduction to Occidental & the liberal arts
  • Transitioning to college and academic support
  • Breakout sessions
  • Current student panel

We are looking for students who have taken some of the most rigorous classes available at their high school, have made an outstanding community impact or maintained significant family responsibilities, and who align with the mission of our residential college. While Occidental does not have any testing or GPA minimums for admission to the College, competitive students have excelled throughout their four years of high school. For more detailed information, it might be helpful to review our first-year class profile.

The final deadline for students to apply for TAP is September 10, 2021. The application includes two short essay prompts, a high school transcript(s) (unofficial screenshot is accepted) and demographic information. Testing will be optional for all applicants in the academic year of 2021-2022. Students have the option of submitting official or self-reported test scores (PSAT is accepted). Students will be notified in mid-September.

If you’re planning to apply, please notify me asap.
