UAA student athletes share mental health tips

As a proud supporter of Seawolf Athletics, Premera is teaming up with University of Alaska Anchorage for a student athlete-driven video campaign.

Through short, shareable social media videos, the campaign encourages young people to prioritize their mental well-being, find coping strategies to care for their mental health, and normalize these types of conversations to reduce shame and stigma.

Four student athletes shared their perspectives on Instagram, including:

• Mylee Anderson of Wasilla, UAA women’s basketball
• Parker Kroon of Wasilla, UAA men’s basketball
• Breeann Spain of Keaau, Hawaii, UAA women’s gymnastics
• Aiden Westin of Anchorage, UAA men’s hockey
