Abstract

Objective: to map the welcoming services in Mental Health offered to students by Brazilian public
universities. Method: a documentary research study presented as a cartography of the Brazilian
public universities that offer in-person courses. The data were collected from August to October
2019 on the Ministry of Education website, according to the following variables: information
about the welcoming service, access modality, activities offered; and geographic distribution of
the universities offering the service in Brazil. Results: of the 107 universities, 73 report having a
welcoming service in Mental Health and, of these, 43 indicate the access modality, mostly through
appointment scheduling, and the types of activities developed with respect to Psychological
Emergency Care. Final Considerations: with the increase in psychological distress among students,
it is the university’s duty to be an interlocutor and welcome this demand. The study contributes by
warning about the need to expand these services.
