Mental Health Awareness Month

Events | May 2025
As we observe Mental Health Awareness Month, Villanova reaffirms its commitment to fostering a community rooted in compassion, respect, and holistic well-being. Guided by our Augustinian values and the University's mission to ignite change through truth, unity, and love, we recognize the importance of supporting mental health as central to our collective flourishing.
In alignment with Villanova’s strategic plan—prioritizing a student-centered, inclusive environment—we are called to break stigmas, encourage open dialogue, and ensure access to resources that empower every individual to thrive. The Anne Welsh McNulty Institute for Women's Leadership echoes this commitment by amplifying voices, promoting equity, and advancing the leadership of women and all individuals in ways that honor mental, emotional, and social wellness.
Together, let us embrace empathy, advocate for one another, and build a campus culture where mental health is understood, valued, and supported.

Women, Faith, and Leadership Book Club
Every Second Thursday of the Month | February to May 2025 | 12 noon McNulty Institute, Tolentine Hall Suite 203
Mother Cabrini: Italian Immigrant of the Century
You are invited to join the Women, Faith, and Leadership initiative's spring semester book club focused on Mother Cabrini. We will be reading Mother Cabrini: Italian Immigrant of the Century by Mary Louise Sullivan, MSC and discuss Mother Cabrini's example of faith and leadership, especially in caring for poor Italian immigrants. We hope that this will kickstart conversations about women's leadership and what we hope her example can bring to our Villanova community.
