Our Questions for You

Why would you like to bring Outrun the Stigma to your campus and community?

Can an Outrun the Stigma Chapter fill a gap in mental health advocacy on your campus? Can an Outrun the Stigma Chapter offer a story sharing platform to students at your school?

Are there other mental health initiatives on your campus? If so, how will an Outrun the Stigma Chapter collaborate with these initiatives?

Outrun the Stigma aims to build partnerships with faculty and/or staff at Chapters to oversee and provide support for the chapter planning committee. If you are applying as a staff of a campus organization or a faculty, tell us about your role/affiliation with that organization and why you are both are interested in starting an Outrun the Stigma Chapter. If you are not applying with a campus organization or a faculty, do you know any on your campus that might be interested in collaborating with you to form a Chapter?

Potential chapter organizations include health and wellness centres, leadership centres, and fitness centres.

Every Outrun the Stigma Chapter has 7-10 members who plan the annual run/walk event. How many, if any, chapter planning committee members do you have? How do you plan on recruiting more if needed?

It is important that each Outrun the Stigma Chapter has a sustainable presence on each campus. What ideas do you have about keeping an Outrun the Stigma Chapter sustainable at your school?

How long do you and your existing team plan on being involved? Do you have involvement from college/university staff and/or faculty?

Every Outrun the Stigma Chapter run/walk event fundraises for a local mental health charity. Do you have a charity in mind that provides a valuable mental health service and needs support?
