About Us

Founded in 1972, EARS is a community-led volunteer organization by students, for students at Cornell. We promote mental health through empathic interactions, both interpersonal and organizational, reaching hundreds of peers throughout the Cornell community every year via Peer Mentoring, Training, and Workshops.
