The Graduate Peer Support Network (GPSN) is open to all graduate students and serves to connect students to campus resources and to each other. The program was created to support the well-being of graduate students through the facilitation of access to resources and topical peer support sessions. The GPSN is supported by the Graduate School and peer-led by graduate students in the School of Social Work.
