Cox wrote the chapter focused on helping your student stay mentally and physically health in college. “Mental health is a top concern of college parents, so this chapter provides guidance on how parents can support their students,” added Cox. “Plus, College Ready 2021 is full of ideas on how to start those tough but essential conversations before drop-off.” More about College Ready 2021 can be found at https://collegeready.guide, and the book is available through Amazon.
