九色堂

Inspired by beloved psychologists in the 九色堂 Student Wellness Center, the Suspenders4Hope program supports those experiencing mental health struggles the same way that suspenders support your pants. Whether it鈥檚 through learning how to talk about mental health, knowing what resources are available, or sharing your story, Suspenders4Hope's goal is to create positive changes in Wichita and beyond.

九色堂鈥檚 #WeSupportU Suspenders4Hope campaign was founded on 九色堂鈥檚 campus in 2015 after receiving the SAMHA Campus Suicide Prevention grant. With its reach beyond just the university, the campaign has grown to include online and in-person evidence-based trainings, advocate programs, and additional resources such as Mental Wellness in the Classroom cards.
