Jackson State University’s Division of Athletics has announced a new partnership with Mindflow to offer mental health resources to student-athletes.
“Exciting news! We’re thrilled to welcome @gojsutigers to the Mindflow family!” the organization wrote in the caption of an Instagram post. “Together, we’re committed to enhancing mental health support for their student athletes. Let’s make a positive impact!”
Mindflow was created by two former student-athletes, Caleb Scott and Anthony Faraino, to highlight the significance of prioritizing mental health in sports.
“As former student-athletes, we understand the unique stressors you face on a daily-basis and how these circumstances can affect your mental health on and off the field,” they wrote on the organization’s website. “We created Mindflow to help you navigate this exciting yet stressful time of being a student-athlete by giving you access to professionals who understand and are qualified to help athletes. We look forward to working with you!”
Mindflow works with over 54 licensed psychologists and sport psychology professionals, who are experts in handling the challenges unique to student-athletes.
