Research Abstract	In this study, a psycho-education program about improving social support of university students was created, and performed effect evaluation. The program consisted of acquisition of the skills associated with acquiring social support from the others effectively, and acquisition of the skills associated with providing social support to the others positively. Although the social support acceptance was not able to be sharply raised as a result of the program implementation, the knowledge, skills and behavior associated with improving social support and mental health were improved.
