Five higher education institutions in the Estrie region—the University of Sherbrooke, Bishop’s University, Champlain College, the Sherbrooke Seminary (college level) and the Cégep de Sherbrooke—have undertaken, with financial support from PRESE, a concerted effort to meet the growing mental health needs of their student populations. Launched in 2019, the project was coordinated by the RBC Centre of University Expertise in Mental Health, which supported the institutions through a structured knowledge transfer and facilitation process. The institutions were guided in identifying the needs and issues experienced by their student populations, based in particular on new surveys and existing data. Based on this assessment, the institutions were invited to select and implement promising initiatives tailored to their context, such as anxiety management workshops.
This article presents the results of an evaluation of the implementation of this collaborative approach, identifying the factors that act as barriers or facilitators to it.
