Mission Statement: As the Advocacy and Awareness Commissioner at Illinois Wesleyan University, my mission is to emphasize the importance of mental health and mental health practices of the student body. By promoting balance, and educating about collegiate substance abuse through programming, my goal is for the students of Illinois Wesleyan to feel confident in differentiating healthful and productive coping skills from harmful coping skills. I will promote healthy and consensual relationships, advocate for sexual assault and domestic/emotional abuse survivors, and help shift the perspective away from victim blaming. I will promote safe and inclusive environments for all students of IWU and advocate for the voices of marginalized communities.
