As part of the Buffalo State Cares campaign to raise awareness of mental health and wellness, reduce stigma,  prevent suicide, and enhance our community, the Counseling Center is seeking nominations for the second annual UPstander Award. An UPstander is a person who takes the time to help another person when he or she notices distress or an unfair situation. It takes courage to be an UPstander instead of a bystander, and we would like to recognize our hidden heroes.

Do you know a student, staff, or faculty member who has spoken up on another's behalf  to empower another person, for example, when witnessing bullying? Do you know someone who contributes to the campus happiness by their actions? Someone who recognized someone else's distress and acted to get help?

Nominate this person online or stop by the tables in the Campbell Student Union all week. Do your part to let us know about the many special people we have here on campus.
