New Department Proposal

I’m writing to propose the creation of a mental health division/department within Stateview, there will be an official name later but we suggest it be called the Wellbeing Department. Although they may not hold any qualifications, their dedication and empathy can provide valuable support to those in need. This department could serve as a safe space where members can openly express their feelings and concerns through a ticketing system within the departmental server.

Depending on the severity of a situation, department members could collaborate with the HICOMM to arrange necessary accommodations, such as forced leave or reduced activity requirements. Another way this department could help is by making sure staff are not online 24/7 and are enjoying outside life.

This mental health division has the potential to significantly enhance the well-being of our community members and foster a more supportive environment within Stateview.

Here are some Pros and Cons:

Pros

  • Provides a safe space: A Wellbeing Department can offer a place where people feel comfortable sharing their feelings without judgment.
  • Potential to reduce stress: By offering support and resources, the department can help members manage stress and improve overall well-being.
  • Increased awareness: It can raise awareness of mental health issues and reduce the stigma around seeking help.
  • Improved community morale: A supportive community can boost morale and create a positive atmosphere.
  • Potential to prevent crises: Early intervention and support can help prevent mental health crises from escalating.

Cons

  • Lack of professional qualifications: Without qualified professionals, the department may not be able to provide adequate support to those with serious mental health conditions.
  • Overwhelming workload: The department may become overwhelmed with requests for help, leading to burnout for volunteers.
  • Privacy concerns: Handling sensitive information about members’ mental health requires strict confidentiality measures to protect their privacy.
  • Dependency: Overreliance on the department for support may hinder individuals from seeking professional help when needed.
  • Potential for misuse: The ticketing system could be misused or abused, leading to unnecessary involvement of the HICOMM.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

best idea ever.

This proposal is pretty well-made.

However, in case of mental health problems, conventional therapy is the best way to handle them and the “space for sharing” in this proposal would be redundant. It can not replace therapy either.

The part with the FL sounds more promising, maybe as a subdivision of CM to monitor activity based on time.

We really need this. Sure people can be put on FL, but some people are having genuine mental issues and we have had many HRS quit due to mental health problems. Solving that would increase player count and therefore overall experience.

If they can’t control their mental health and keep destroying it, It’s not SV fault However if you feel that you have mental health issues contact a therapy or your parents.

The department wouldn’t be able to help any better than therapy. It wouldn’t be effective enough.

Not sure how this would work if it’s actually proposed. I’m conceptualizing that this would/wouldn’t work, depending on how it is much to be used in the future. However, really good suggestion, I would like to see how it is to be added.

I think that this is a good idea and could give SV a better reputation, could stop some SV problems and I support this idea, however I think that the members of this department should undergo a test to make sure they won’t abuse or make the people feel any worse.

I agree with you.

It’s great that you care about other people’s mental health and everything,But There’s other resources too like the mental health line, it would be beneficial for Staview to put the number in announcements just in case nobody knows the number or website for mental health services, But otherwise your idea is great and ideal for those who play SV alot and sometimes gets into argument with another person or ongoing fights inside of chat as we all seen. sometimes there a lot of toxicity in chat and in game too so I understand your concern.

Chill let’s see what SV says :sob::sob::sob:

this is just a horrible idea. all departments server a purpose and this just seems like introducing something that’s completely unrelated to a PRISON ROLEPLAY…
