For donor Connie Frank (LAS ’65), community well-being is a shared responsibility. Her vision for the Connie Frank CARE Center at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is that the space—and the services provided—will adapt to meet the needs of Illinois students. At a large public research university with an enrollment of 60,000+ students, Illini can now experience a higher level of personalized care that is responsive to both immediate needs and the holistic student experience.
“The goal is for the center to be a safe and secure place for students to find the assistance they require to be successful as they meet the daily challenges of life,” said Frank. “The CARE Center will hopefully be a good first stop in navigating a rewarding path to graduation.”
