Applications close April 30th.

Our first (and hopefully annual) ⭐️STARFEST⭐️ is taking place on Zoom Sunday 21st March at 2pm EST, where our amazing Peer Supporters will be leading different stress-relieving activities! Activities include: Origami Lucky Star Making, Stress Ball Making, Fortune Teller Making, and a Guided Coloring Activity.

On Friday 19th at 2pm EST we will be giving out materials at one of the kiosks in Fellows Garden. Don’t worry if you can’t make it to pick up materials though, most of what you will need can definitely be found at home.

Any student attending will automatically be entered into a raffle to win free art supplies 🎨🌟

Our SPRING 2021 Office Hours are now active!! If you need some emotional support, don’t hesitate to message our virtual anonymous chatline so we can help: https://tawk.to/chat/5ee4fe544a7c6258179a8793/default

Just a reminder - these hours are the only times the peer supporters will be logged in to the chat so even if you are able to access the chatline outside of these hours, there may not be someone there to help you.

We are also offering limited in-person office hours in the STAR room SCC 324, if you need a friendly face after a hard day 🌟

If you can’t make office hours, feel free to email [email protected] to set up a separate time with one of our peer supporters. ⭐️We are here for you⭐️
