Eye to Eye - University of Rochester

Eye to Eye - University of Rochester Eye to Eye is a mentoring movement for different thinkers. Eye to Eye at the University of Rochester, is SA approved.

It was founded at this campus in the fall of 2014. It's a chapter of a national organization that connects college/high school students with elementary/middle school students who have similar learning differences (LD for short) and/or ADHD. Every Friday we go to Rochester Prep Middle School and do art projects with our mentees that facilitate conversations about LD/ADHD, self-advocacy, and self-esteem. On campus, we aim to raise awareness and strike out stigma surrounding LD/ADHD.

is back on! This Wednesday (11/11 EST) come share your story whether it be your relationship with your learning disability or ADHD or how you cope with mental illness, all people and stories are welcome. We recently had an incident where members didn’t feel included so we’re opening it up to anyone from the U of R who wants to share and be heard. This event is hybrid and will be held in the May Room on campus. Feel uncomfortable sharing in front of everyone? Bring a friend! We want to make this event as safe and inclusive as possible 💫🥳
