Cornell Health is committed to providing a welcoming and affirming environment for all students.
We recognize that historical power and privilege have marginalized and oppressed individuals from various identities and backgrounds, contributing to undue stress, health concerns and, sometimes, a reluctance to access to health care and emotional support services.
We strive daily to:
- provide an environment in which people who have experienced marginalization can be heard and seen
- reduce barriers and supporting students’ health and well-being through resource allocation and advocacy for policy change
- enhance our own cultural consciousness and humility through staff training, participation in social justice events, and intentional engagement in difficult dialogues
Please contact us if you need support:
- Schedule an appointment with a medical or mental health provider
- Stop by one of our Let's Talk locations to speak informally with a Cornell Health counselor (free, confidential, and available daily Monday–Friday)
- View our resources for victims of harassment, assault, and bias
- Contact our Skorton Center for Health Initiatives about program requests and self-care resources
- Reach out to our Student Disability Services staff if you need support related to a disability
- Faculty and staff members may speak confidentially with a counselor through our Faculty & Staff Assistance Program
