Mission
National Mission:
1. BE RADICALLY AUTHENTIC.
Our words and actions are real: approachable, reassuring, and practical. We all have mental health, and we meet our community where they are, exactly as they are. The community we inspire brings their whole selves, and are respected for their unique expertise – which includes lived experience. All are welcome and the way we communicate affirms that.
2. EMPOWER THE COMMUNITY.
We actively listen to each other and amplify our community. We value partnership and recognize that our ideas are better when perspectives from up, down, and across the team and community are sought, heard, and considered. We raise each other up to ensure all voices are heard.
3. PURSUE SMART, BOLD INNOVATION.
We shape the next-gen social norms and solutions for mental health to continuously and boldly evolve. We are driven by our “why” and are committed to excellence as we respond and adapt with agility. We are forward-thinking, and always learning.
4. INSPIRE EQUITABLE AND JUSTICE-DRIVEN ACTION.
An emotionally healthy world is not possible without a just world. We believe that equity and social justice are paramount to our work and we use that lens as we look to make change in our world.

Mission At DeSales:
1. SHOW COMPASSION AND EMPATHY
Compassion and empathy are what drive this club into its core goal of creating a safe place for mental health. We will create a genuine, emotionally-intelligent community that knows it is okay to talk about mental health.
2. EXTEND UNDERSTANDING
In the case that someone feels comfortable sharing impactful or traumatic parts of their lives, the members will feel empowered to understand their feelings, and know it is okay to refer them to a trusted adult, if they see fit.
3. PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES TO GET INVOLVED
We will create opportunities for students and staff to be involved in making a difference in mental health culture at DeSales university.
4. EDUCATE, LEARN, REPEAT.
Not only will members be learning about various mental health topics, but the leaders/executive
board will be too. We will constantly be educating ourselves and using Active Minds National resources to apply new knowledge to our chapter.
5. INSPIRE ALL PARTS OF CAMPUS TO TAKE LEADERSHIP
All students, professors, coaches, directors and staff will be encouraged to embody these values in their own way and bring their ideas to life through or with the help of Active Minds.
