Corporate Sponsor Guide
Hello!Thank you for considering supporting our efforts to host the first ever Ivy League-wide mental health conference. This conference began with a simple idea: What if we could bring together some
of the best and brightest minds to tackle one of the biggest problems currently facing our campuses, the country, and the
world as a whole?1
1Corporate Sponsor Guide
Who are we?We are a group of Penn students, who represent different nationalities, cultures, viewpoints, and fields of study, yet are united by our passion for mental health and wellbeing.
We believe that, given recent mental health-related tragedies on Penn’s campus and others throughout the
country, action must be taken. This is that action.

Who’s coming?
Because we aim to bring together some of the best and brightest minds, there will be delegations from all eight Ivy League
universities. Representing different cultures, nationalities, and industries, these talented, influential student leaders have been carefully selected based on their demonstrated ability to create
positive change at their respective institutions.

State of the Ivy League
What are the issues unique to being an Ivy League student? Each delegate will have an opportunity to present the student perspective on the status of mental health on
their respective college campus. We aim to create a safe space for sharing experiences and providing examples on how to maintain one’s mental well being,
while remaining a top achiever.
6Corporate Sponsor Guide
Cultural Identity
Learn the benefits of embracing your cultural identity. Cultural identities can play a large role in how we approach, discuss, and treat mental health. This workshop will
discuss how to view different cultural identities as an advantage in this context, rather than an obstacle.
7Corporate Sponsor Guide
Gender and Sexual Identity
This workshop will focus on how issues relating to gender and sexuality interact with issues relating to mental health. We will discuss how to facilitate the creation of a comfortable campus environment where people of all gender identifications can
collaborate with each other comfortably and thrive.
8Corporate Sponsor Guide
Substance Abuse
Substance abuse is often tied to mental health issues. This workshop will discuss the link between mental health and high-risk behaviors involving drugs and alcohol
abuse. In a judgment-free environment, we aim to clarify misconceptions and create more active community leaders who will go back to their respective campuses with
new knowledge and perspectives on this sensitive topic.
9Corporate Sponsor Guide
Medical Perspective on Mental Health
Mental health often has a physiological component. We will focus on understanding and treating mental health from a scientific perspective. We will address the
biological basis of psychopathologies and how they interact with our environment to create or hinder mental maladies. We will take a positive-psychology approach to provide research-based, practical solutions for on-campus mental health issues.
10Corporate Sponsor Guide
Expectations at an Ivy League
The expectations at and demands of an elite institution will be discussed, with a focus on the social and academic demands that come with being a student. In a
facilitated discussion, delegates will brainstorm practical ways to prioritize self-care and wellness while keeping up with school-related pressures.
11Corporate Sponsor Guide
Changing Our Campuses
Bringing implementable solutions and widespread cultural change to our respective campus communities is no small task. We will discuss pragmatic strategies to: 1) Start incoming students on a positive path to mental health, and 2) Change the
mentality of current students to one that prioritizes mental wellness.
12Corporate Sponsor Guide
Practicing Mental Wellness
While there’s certainly a time and place for talking about mental wellness, sometimes the best thing to do is to actively engage in activities that foster mental
health. In this workshop, attendees will learn the basics of yoga and meditation. Refreshing fruit smoothies will provide a fun, positive conclusion to the workshop
and the conference.
