Lauren’s Promise Expands Across College Campuses

As featured by ABC 4, in their October 2020 article, “Lauren’s Promise: Over 70 professors add McCluskey statement to syllabus,” by Lindsey Peterson Nielson, Lauren’s Promise has seen significant growth recently, with over 70 professors adding the pledge to their syllabi. This pledge is a commitment to student safety and aims to improve the respond to violence against students. The Lauren McCluskey Foundation, dedicated to promoting campus safety, has been instrumental in advocating for this initiative.

The foundation’s mission is to honor Lauren’s legacy by raising awareness about the importance of safety measures and implementing programs that make campuses safer. The addition of the Lauren’s Promise to syllabi by numerous professors is a testament to the growing recognition of the need for campus safety. This initiative not only highlights the importance of protecting students but also encourages educational institutions to adopt comprehensive security measures.

The Lauren McCluskey Foundation continues to support various student safety programs, including self-defense classes, educational workshops, empowering students to protect themselves and seek help when needed. The foundation collaborates with colleges to promote security initiatives such as increased security personnel, improved lighting, and improve training for student-facing personnel.

The growth of Lauren’s Promise is a significant step towards creating a safer environment for all students, and the foundation will continue to advocate for student safety and work towards this goal. Support the Lauren McCluskey Foundation by visiting our Get Involved page today.
