SUMMARY:Who Decides What? The Decisions That Shape Student Life
DESCRIPTION:Ever wondered who actually decides what student life at TRU looks like? The student experience is shaped by decisions made across the post-secondary system\, but it isn’t always clear who is responsible for what.  \nWho decides what students pay? Who decides what supports are available? Who makes choices about transportation\, housing\, and the resources students rely on every day? \nWhat role do different decision-makers play within the post-secondary system? And how can students understand where to bring their questions\, concerns\, and ideas? \nDrop by Student Street in Old Main from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. to chat with the TRUSU Community Affairs Committee and learn how decisions are made\, who is involved\, and where to direct your questions\, concerns\, and ideas. \nBring your questions\, find out who has the answers\, and discover how the decisions shaping your student experience actually get made!

SUMMARY:Amnesty Urgent Actions Outreach
DESCRIPTION:Every day\, people around the world face violations of their internationally protected human rights simply for speaking out\, defending their communities\, or exercising their fundamental freedoms. While these situations can feel overwhelming\, there are meaningful ways to take action. \nThe TRUSU Amnesty Urgent Actions Program is one of those ways. \nThrough this initiative\, the TRUSU Equity Committee responds to 26 urgent human rights cases identified by Amnesty International by writing advocacy letters every 2 weeks to governments and decision-makers around the world. These letters call for immediate action to protect individuals at risk and uphold internationally recognized human rights. Together with millions of people participating in Amnesty International’s global movement\, these collective actions have helped secure justice\, protection\, and freedom for countless individuals. \nCome see the work we’ve been doing\nVisit our Amnesty Urgent Action outreach table at the Clubs Day and Community Fair to learn about the human rights cases we’ve responded to throughout the Summer 2026 semester. Explore the letters we’ve written\, discover the stories behind each case\, learn about successful outcomes from past urgent actions\, and speak with committee members about why these issues matter. \nWe’ll also show you how you can participate yourself. Whether you’ve never written an advocacy letter before or you’re interested in becoming more involved in human rights work\, we’ll walk you through the process and show you how simple it is to take action. \nDrop by for a few minutes or stay for a conversation. Learn about the human rights violations we’ve addressed this past semester\, discover how collective action creates real change\, and find out how you can become part of Amnesty International’s global movement for justice. \nTo explore all of the cases addressed through the TRUSU Amnesty Urgent Action Program\, visit our Amnesty Urgent Action webpage.

SUMMARY:Equity Trainings: Mental Health and Supportive Conversations
DESCRIPTION:The TRUSU Equity Committee is excited to host an Equity Training on Mental Health and Supportive Conversations\, a free session designed for anyone looking to strengthen their understanding of mental health and build the confidence to support others in meaningful\, responsible ways. This training will be facilitated by experts from the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) – Kamloops Branch\, who bring extensive experience in community mental health education and psychological safety. \nThis interactive session will explore how mental health exists on a continuum and why psychological health and safety matter in campus environments. Whether you are a student\, staff member\, or community leader\, knowing how to respond when someone shares they are struggling is an essential skill. Participants will gain practical tools to navigate supportive conversations while recognizing the importance of boundaries\, self-awareness\, and equity in mental health discussions. \nIn this session\, participants will explore: \n\nUnderstanding Mental Health as a Continuum – recognizing that mental health exists on a spectrum and that experiencing challenges does not automatically mean someone has a mental illness.\nPsychological Health and Shared Responsibility – examining the role students\, staff\, and leaders play in creating safer\, more supportive campus environments.\nEquity and Mental Health – understanding how diversity\, inclusion\, and lived experience shape mental health outcomes and conversations.\nRecognizing Signs and Responding with Care – identifying subtle indicators that someone may be struggling and learning practical strategies for having supportive conversations.\nSustainable Support and Self-Care – maintaining boundaries\, following up appropriately\, and building resilience to prevent burnout.\n\nParticipants will leave with practical\, real-world tools they can apply in classrooms\, workplaces\, leadership roles\, and daily interactions. \nRegistration Details\nThis free training is available to the first 40 participants who complete the registration below. Space is limited to ensure meaningful discussion and engagement\, so be sure to secure your spot early.
