Campus ChampionWinning track races isn’t the only motivation for student-athlete Emily Pierro — she strives for balance in life. That focus has led the sophomore inclusive childhood education major to be an advocate for mental health at SUNY Cortland. Emily helps Conley Counseling and Wellness Services with various groups and activities promoting mental health awareness. She collaborated on the development of a weekly Mind/Body Self-Care Group and served on the university’s Body Appreciation Week Committee. It’s all part of Emily’s goal to encourage confidence and help her peers thrive during a key part of their lives.
