Morgan\u2019s family described her as a very tenacious person that gave 100% to everything she did. She was a loving friend, and she was passionate about her artwork. As an athlete, she trained hard and pushed herself on the field. During her senior year of high school, Morgan began to experience high levels of anxiety. She reached out and received professional help and support from her friends and family. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/Morgan-Signing.png\" alt=\"Picture of Morgan surrounded by family as she is signing her letter of commitment to play lacrosse at Duke University.\" class=\"wp-image-327\" style=\"width:456px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/Morgan-Signing.png 1000w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/Morgan-Signing-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/Morgan-Signing-768x576.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Morgan signing her letter of intent to play lacrosse at Duke University. <br>Morgan\u2019s Message.

However, at the start of her sophomore season at Duke, Morgan endured a severe knee injury.&nbsp;The next year was very tough for Morgan and she underwent surgery and went through rehabilitation. This injury caused such a shift in Morgan\u2019s life that she began to feel out of control of her life, and her self- worth suffered. As her anxiety worsened and she began feeling more isolated from those around her, Morgan suffered in silence. This struggle ultimately led her to take her life in July of 2019.&nbsp;After her passing, Morgan&#8217;s family shared her story and struggles with mental health nationwide. Her story garnered much attention, and helped lead to the creation of Morgan&#8217;s Message in July of 2020. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I get involved in Morgan&#8217;s Message? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Morgan\u2019s Message has an education program that helps them spread their message nationwide. Volunteers make up the program, which includes a three-part ambassador system. The three parts of the program are student- athlete ambassadors, at-large ambassadors, and club and young organizations. Each part of the program has the same goal, to raise awareness about mental-health for student-athletes. However, each part targets a specific age level. For this article, I am going to focus on the Student-Athlete Ambassadors Campus program because it is what I have the most experience with.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"821\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/FC0ECAA8-3909-43EC-85D5-7EDA8720A718_1_201_a-1024x821.jpeg\" alt=\"Morgan's Message members writing kind messages on each others back as part of our &quot;I've Got Your Back&quot; activity.\" class=\"wp-image-330\" style=\"width:452px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/FC0ECAA8-3909-43EC-85D5-7EDA8720A718_1_201_a-1024x821.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/FC0ECAA8-3909-43EC-85D5-7EDA8720A718_1_201_a-300x240.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/FC0ECAA8-3909-43EC-85D5-7EDA8720A718_1_201_a-768x615.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/FC0ECAA8-3909-43EC-85D5-7EDA8720A718_1_201_a.jpeg 1284w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Morgan&#8217;s Message members participating in our &#8220;I&#8217;ve Got Your Back&#8221; activity. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Student Athlete Campus Ambassador Program<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This program consists of student volunteers ages 14+ that are motivated to be active leaders and spread Morgan\u2019s Message in their schools and communities. The organization expects ambassadors to dedicate 2-4 hours per month spreading awareness and growing the movement, in addition to participating in bi-monthly calls with other Morgan&#8217;s Message ambassadors. Finally, the organization expects ambassadors to lead at least one chapter meeting per month at their school\/campus. For example, I am a part of Morgan\u2019s Message at Cornell College, and we have a meeting every month where we talk about mental health related topics and participate in activities. This program has been very beneficial for me and I have really enjoyed getting to spread awareness around athlete mental health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you or someone you know is interested in becoming a Morgan\u2019s Message ambassador, and you meet all the criteria, all you have to do is fill out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.morgansmessage.org\/campus-application\">this application<\/a>!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"378\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/9EB94BBD-910B-4E1C-9A33-28DE6F223FD2_4_5005_c.jpeg\" alt=\"Morgan's Message members playing Just Dance.\" class=\"wp-image-329\" style=\"width:419px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/9EB94BBD-910B-4E1C-9A33-28DE6F223FD2_4_5005_c.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/leveltheplayingfield\/wp-content\/uploads\/47\/2026\/03\/9EB94BBD-910B-4E1C-9A33-28DE6F223FD2_4_5005_c-286x300.jpeg 286w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Morgan&#8217;s Message members playing Just Dance at our &#8220;Dance out the Winter Blues&#8221; event. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Personal insights and experiences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>During our monthly meeting this year, we have discussed a variety of topics surrounding athlete mental health, but we have also participated in some fun activities!
