Galloway, N.J. – As music filled the Campus Center Grand Hall, students gathered in front of the various tables lining the hallway on Tuesday, Oct. 15.

At first glance, nothing was out of the ordinary, as there’s always a fair with giveaways happening this time of year.

However, the tables carried more than the standard fare of free pens and stress balls – students walked away talking about different symptoms of over 20 types of mental health conditions, or with marker and pen ink all over their hands from writing some of their deepest and darkest secrets on an anonymous wall.

Some left with brochures full of mental health resources and a raffle ticket that they earned after visiting every table, while others walked with friends and giggled about the positive affirmations they came up with as they filled in a canvas full of others. 

This is no regular event — it’s the IMALIVE Mental Health Fair, an initiative that Brooke Zall-Crawford, director of Counseling and Psychological Services, thought would be a perfect way to expose Stockton students to the many different mental health resources available to them, both on and off campus. With help from the Karen Alton Mental Health Initiatives Fund, Zall-Crawford and her team of student volunteers hosted this fair in both Galloway and Atlantic City.
