Volunteers needed for a 10–15 minute psychology study.

PsyD students are looking for volunteers to test a short peer-support checklist called the Battle Buddy Risk Check (BBRC).

This tool is designed to help peers recognize noticeable changes in behavior that may relate to stress or safety in military and training environments. They’re gathering feedback to make sure it’s clear, practical, and useful.

Who can participate?
18 years or older + A current ROTC cadet, Reservist, veteran student, or active-duty service member

What happens when education meets community impact?

This Thursday, Austin Peay State University students across public health, nursing, medical laboratory science, and phlebotomy will be working side by side, applying their training in real time to serve Clarksville residents.

Together, they will provide heart disease risk screenings, health education, and meal resources, while gaining the kind of hands-on experience that defines APSU’s commitment to service and workforce readiness.

📅 Thursday, March 26 from Noon to 2:00 p.m.
📍 Loaves and Fishes [825 Crossland Ave, Clarksville]

In partnership with APSU Food Pantry, Clarksville Parks & Recreation, and Loaves and Fishes, this "Govs Wellness Hub" event reflects what is possible when disciplines collaborate around a shared mission: caring for community.
