Green Bandana Project
Welcome to St. Cloud State's Green Bandana Project
At St. Cloud State we understand that mental health is a crucial aspect of student well-being. We believe in creating a supportive environment that fosters open conversations about mental health and offers assistance to those in need. The Green Bandana Project is one of the ways we're working to make a positive impact on our campus community.
What is the Green Bandana Project?
The Green Bandana Project is a symbol of hope, support, and solidarity for those experiencing mental health challenges. It is a grassroots initiative that encourages individuals to wear green bandanas as a sign that they are willing to listen and offer support to anyone who may be struggling with their mental health.

We are dedicated to promoting mental health awareness and providing resources to support our students. The Green Bandana Project is one of the initiatives through which we demonstrate our commitment to the well-being of our community.

Break the Stigma

Get Your Green Bandana
Our ultimate goal is to spread this project throughout campus to let all students know their mental health matters, and that their peers, educators, and friends are mental health advocates. Bandanas can be found in the following locations:
- Healthy Huskies office - Eastman 111
