March 4, 2022 - [OFFICIAL-L] From the President's Desk

Dear Wright State Community,

Over the past week, we’ve all watched the terrible events that have unfolded in Eastern Europe. Members of our community have been impacted by the horrific invasion of Ukraine, and I want you to know that here at Wright State you are supported.

Campus resources are available, and we encourage those who need them to reach out to these services that are provided with support, compassion, and understanding.

Wright State students can seek confidential support services through Counseling and Wellness Services by calling 937-775-3407. You can call Raider Cares, a 24-hour crisis phone service, at 937-775-4567 (TTY: 314-485-4345). You also have access to a Crisis Text Line that offers 24-hour, seven-day per week text contact with trained crisis counselors, by texting "LISTEN" to 741-741.

Wright State’s Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provides support services for all employees, regardless of benefit eligibility. EAP services are provided at no cost to employees, and certain members of their family, and include 24/7 telephone access to licensed and experienced counselors, as well as work/life balance services. Call 800-227-6007 or visit the Impact Solutions website at myimpactsolution.com. Use member username: wsufsap.

Kindness and understanding are critically important during times like these. I encourage everyone’s support for those who are struggling with or impacted by these horrific events, particularly faculty, staff, and students with ties to the affected areas. Please take care of yourselves and look out for one another.

Best wishes,

Sue
