ALANAM Community Resources

ALANAM initiatives aim to foster an inclusive environment that promotes identity development, intellectual achievement, personal success, and social belonging that centers on the experiences of *African-American/Black, Latinx/Hispanic, Asian/Pacific Islander, Native American, Alaskan Native, and Multiracial communities at Elon. Some of the programs/services under *ALANAM Initiatives include:

S.M.A.R.T Mentor Program

The Student Mentors Advising Rising Talent (SMART) program is designed to ease the transition from high school to college, both academically and socially, for first-year and transfer students. The SMART Program centers the experiences of the ALANAM (African-American/Black, Latinx/Hispanic, Asian/Pacific Islander, Native American, Alaskan Native, and Multiracial)community through a peer-to-peer mentorship model. First-year and transfer students learn from upper-level classmates who are trained to provide guidance and support to their mentees. See more information about the SMART program.

Resource Fair (Aliados)

An annual event is held at the beginning of the academic year to connect the ALANAM community with different departments/offices/services on campus.
