In response to the tragic events at Oxford High School in November 2021, Anna Peruski and Abigail Lange, recent graduates of SVSU's BSN program, had a shared vision. They dreamed of creating a space where students could prioritize their well-being and mental health, a dream that has now become a reality on SVSU's campus.
The Lot[us] Room, located in Wickes 267 and a project close to their hearts, is a testament to their commitment to fostering a supportive community.
Amenities include books, self-help worksheets, guided meditation tools, coloring activities, journals, fidget toys, crafts, games, aromatherapy, soothing sounds, an affirmation wall and more!
Peruski emphasized that the Lot[us] Room is "made for anyone and everyone," a sentiment reflected in its slogan, "Find People. Find Peace." This inclusive approach underscores the room's role as a safe haven for all students, regardless of their background or circumstances. It stands as a living tribute to the power of unity and shared determination to prioritize physical mental, and emotional health within the SVSU community.
