Throughout my Sophomore year in the Leadership Program, I researched the impacts of physical and mental health on academic success. I specifically examined the impacts of health on academic success for elementary students. I found that mental health can be one of the most influential aspects on determining academic success. Therefore, for my social action project, I partnered with Big Brothers Big Sisters, in order to start a mentoring program on campus. I am excited to begin fostering mentor relationships on campus and within the DC community. Please read more about my project HERE.
