SUSS OWLs
The SUSS Peer Supporters, also referred to as SUSS OWLs (Our Well-being Listeners), are a group of trained students collaborating with Student Life (STL) to actively promote social, emotional, physical, and mental well-being through outreach initiatives; and provide a listening ear to peers in need.
The OWLs' key activities include:
- Provide peer support by being a listening ear for students in Here to Hear (H2H) sessions
- Organise and coordinate well-being workshops
- Facilitate experiential wellness events
- Promote awareness on the importance of mental wellness through social media
The OWLs are mentored by STL staff in the areas of leadership, personal development, project management. To ensure sustainability and continuity of the peer support structure, each peer supporter commits for a minimum of one year and they are strongly encouraged to continue as senior peer supporters.
