The MOE-CCNU Mental Health Service Platform is a platform providing free mental health services to people in need during the outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), especially medical staff, patients and their relatives, police officers and security professionals. More than 4,000 qualified psychological consultants have volunteered to participate in this project, among whom more than 1,000 are now working in shifts.
