HOPE Peer Educators
What is HOPE?
Helping Our Peers Excel (HOPE) is a peer education program supervised through the King's College Counseling Center. HOPE members are important campus leaders who build awareness of important emotional and social issues relevant to college students and connect them to important resources on campus.
HOPE Mission Statement
As HOPE peer educators, we offer education and support that promotes overall wellness, responsible decision making, academic success and advancing the common good for our campus community. Through creative peer-to-peer discussions as well as campus events, we strive to inspire others to discover "not only how to make a living, but how to live."
