ABOUT SEAN'S HOUSE

It is a space designed to help members of our community improve their mental health and wellbeing and connect with their peers in a safe and confidential environment.

The goal of these services is to improve wellness, empower members of the community, and connect young adults to resources and communities of support that meet their specific needs.

“When I think of Sean's House and what it provides the community, it gives me that warm feeling inside. It provides a place without judgement, without any necessary explanation, and just a place to not feel lonely, but more so to feel included.”

"I consider Sean's House to be my second home on campus. Ever since I've become a peer specialist it truly opened my eyes to how much the organization can change a community for the better and how I can also make small changes throughout the community.

"Sean’s House means community to me. I believe it is much harder to go through something alone. What makes Sean’s House special is that there are people there every day who truly care, listen, and offer support without judgment. It is a space where healing and connection coexist.”

"Sean’s house is one of the most important things to me in college, at UD, and in my life in general. Sean’s house helped me through my entire college experience so far, gave me some of my closest friends I’ve met and a sense of belonging. Sean’s house and all the people there are lights in my life that has helped me to define who I am and who I will be.”

"To me, Sean’s House represents safety, comfort, and hope. It’s a truly special place where people can show up exactly as they are and feel accepted. Through the grief support group I founded and facilitated at Sean’s House, I’ve witnessed firsthand how deeply this space can change lives."
