⏰ 12:00 PM
📍 APSU Lawn (meet at the flagpole in front of the Browning Building)
Bring a blanket and a snack or dish to share. Come as you are—we would love to see you there!
🗳️ Fall 2026 Officer Elections
It’s that time of year again! We will be holding elections for Social Work Club officers for Fall 2026.

- Election will take place during the final gathering on May 1st
Consider nominating a peer—or yourself! Your voice and leadership matter in shaping our club’s future.
🧠 Mental Health Mondays
Remember to join us for Mental Health Mondays each week. This is a space to pause, reset, and breathe with no pressure or judgment—just support.
📍 Health Professions Building Lobby (HPB)
⏰ Every Monday, 11:30 AM – 2:30 PM
Stop by anytime during those hours. You don’t have to have it all together. Just come as you are.
We are so grateful for each of you and the compassion you bring to this community. Let’s finish the semester strong—together.
With appreciation,
Jacklyn Shires
Social Work Club, President
