Attend a Student Support and Advocacy Training
A message from: Amani Gheith, Director of Student Support and Advocacy
Dear New School Community,
The Student Support and Advocacy (SSA) office provides support to students experiencing non-academic challenges, connecting them to on- and off-campus resources and helping them navigate offices and systems inside and outside The New School. This can include concerns related to mental and physical health, interpersonal issues, behavior, issues impacting academic progress, food, financial and housing concerns, and more.
SSA is continuing its training and workshop series in Fall 2025. These sessions are open to students, staff and faculty who would like to learn more about Student Support and Advocacy, what resources and support are available, how to identify when a student is struggling and needs support, and how to connect with our team.
Please register using the information below:
- Wednesday, Sept. 17, 1:00-2:30 p.m., Zoom
- Thursday, Oct. 16, 3:00-4:30 p.m., In Person
