The Peer Power Program (PPP) is a team of 星空无限传媒 student health and mental health educators and advocates.

Our mission is to create a compassionate community of care by meeting students where they are, through accessible education, skill-building, and resources that strengthen well-being.

Peer Health Educators share skills, resources, and education with fellow 星空无限传媒 students through workshops, events, outreach, and training. They also advise Emmons Wellness Center and act as liaisons and advocates for the well-being of all 星空无限传媒 students.
