The province has announced an investment to increase access to mental health services at Niagara College and Brock University.
The Ontario government will provide $749,769 to increase the number of mental health workers and programs at the schools.
It will also allow students to have more acces to provincial mental health and addictions systems as well as strengthen community partnerships.
Niagara West MPP Sam Oosterhoff says it's important to provide such help to students who are struggling.
"This important funding will ensure students at Brock University and Niagara College have access to the supports they need to succeed in their academic journey."
This funding is part of the province's commitment of $26.25 million for mental health supports for college and university students in 2020-21.
