Shifting from Caretaker to Mentor
Supporting Your Student Health and Wellness
For your students to perform at their full potential, get good grades, and relieve stress and pressure, they will need to take care of their overall well-being. We will work with your student to strive for health and wellness while maintaining a sense of balance with their academics, professional goals, and personal life, but you can also refer them to the following resources.
New Student and Family Experiences
We help University of Illinois families develop the skills necessary to become effective mentors and coaches to their students. New Student and Family Experiences serves as the campus liaison to families and offers families many opportunities to be engaged, including family weekends and events, webinars, and the Illinois Family Connections communication portal. We also work collaboratively with the Illini Moms and Dads Associations to provide programs and support for parents and families.
Illinois Family Connections
International Families
Being far from your student can be challenging not only for them but for you as well. The more information you know regarding our campus, services, and International student processes, the more you can help them get acclimated to Illinois as well as give you that peace of mind knowing that your student is well taken care of.
