Resource: The Impact of COVID-19 on College and University Students Who Self-Injure: Risks and Strategies for Mitigation

This page discusses the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI), a major predictor of suicidal thoughts and behavior, among college and university students. A collection of resources (PDF, 1 page) for students who self-injure is provided in addition to an outline of the roles that students, administrators, and campus staff in support roles (e.g., campus physicians, nurses, mental health professionals, residence hall staff) can play in mitigating risk for NSSI.
