New Jersey based Pillar College is an undergraduate and graduate institution of higher learning
that is faithful to classical Christianity. Pillar’s desire to provide their students with support
services that encourage personal and community health has resulted in them launching peer to
peer support platform, TalkCampus.
One of the aspects of TalkCampus that appealed most to Pillar College is its accessibility to
students globally, with the platform currently being used by 80+ universities from 5 continents
and across 25 languages. TalkCampus also offers students the opportunity to join a
volunteering program, where students are able to develop their support skills, deepen their
involvement in TalkCampus and additionally join an innovative online volunteering community.
“Pillar College's partnership with TalkCampus provides our students with 24/7 online peer
mentoring support to assist students in maintaining positive mental health. TalkCampus will be
one of the many support services available to provide balance and support for positive mental
health wellness as students are equipped for excellent scholarship and service. Our desire is
that, for each student, the spirit, soul, and body will be nourished, and made complete as they
thrive in becoming transformational leaders.” Dr. Maxine Bradshaw, Professor & Chair,
Psychology and Counselling.
TalkCampus is customised to each institution, so students will see the Pillar College student
services embedded within the app, ensuring they know exactly what support is available to them
and how they can access this support. In addition, real-time escalation ensures that students
who are at a higher level of risk get the support they need.
“It’s fantastic to see the commitment from institutions to student mental health through providing a diverse support program. We know how impactful peer-to-peer support can be for emotional resilience, and we are incredibly excited to welcome Pillar College students into our
community.” - Jamie Druitt, Head of Product and Partnerships, TalkCampus.
