Peer support allows students to connect with other students and share their experiences. Support can focus on the practicalities of school, our shared world experiences, or emotions that come up for all of us.

Our peer supporters are trained to listen, provide support, and help you access additional resources if needed.

The Joy at School Mini-Grant Program is a new initiative that invites Rutgers Health students to propose creative, student-led projects that promote belonging within their school. Students are encouraged to think broadly about what increases belonging. 

What does belonging look like in your school community?

The first year’s theme, Cultivating a Sense of Belonging, emphasizes the importance of creating environments where every student feels seen, heard, and valued. A sense of belonging is a fundamental human need that involves feeling accepted and valued within a group or community, significantly impacting mental health and well-being.
