What the petition asks

A recent increase in teen suicides poses a major concern for students and their mental health. We hope to combat this by providing a Faculty member that all students are aware of and able to talk to freely.
This is coming from a group of students that have experienced this decline in mental health first hand and have decided we want to do something about this. Now.
