Description:
Are you interested in supporting students through mental health challenges?
Do you hope to make a wider impact on campus? Are you ever the stand-in
therapist, mom friend, or go-to secret keeper? If you answered yes to any of
the above, read below to learn more about Lean on Me College Park (CP) and
how to apply to be a peer supporter!
Lean On Me CP is an anonymous, peer-to-peer text line for UMD students to
seek non-crisis mental health support. Our organization complements existing
services at UMD with a mission to lower the barrier to entry for seeking
emotional support by being anonymous, highly accessible, approachable, and
involved in the community. Our line is now open for the spring semester, so
feel free to text us at 301-494-8808 from 2 PM - 2 AM any day of the week to
chat with one of our trained peer supporters.
Lean On Me supporters are those on the other end of our text line, chatting
with fellow students. If you are interested in being a supporter, please
apply by February 6th at https://ter.ps/lomspring22 and learn more about the
line and role at
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YFt6xvsxB_i7cugw8Trm4SNpV0HTaNj81rkANhnvVlg/edit.
If you are a returning applicant, please complete a new application at
https://ter.ps/lomreapply. Otherwise, please click the sign up button to
create a new account. All UMD students are welcome to apply to be a
supporter; no prior experience is needed and all training will be provided!
Lean On Me was originally founded in 2015 by MIT students and has chapters at
eight other universities around the country. For more information about Lean
