We Advocate for You
Student Affairs advocates and provides access to resources for Northeastern Illinois University students who may be experiencing sexual assault, domestic violence, homelessness, hunger, and other personal crisis to lessen any disruption in their education. We are committed to supporting the success of our diverse student population. It is our goal to maintain and develop meaningful partnerships with Northeastern student leaders, faculty, staff and community leaders to support students in need.
