The MENACC is an institutional resource that aims to provide holistic support to MENA-identifying students at Yale that encourages their development as well as educates the broader Yale and Greater New Haven communities of their distinct cultures, histories, religions, and needs. This is done through advocacy efforts, educational programming, student organization support, and collaborations with campus partners through an intersectional lens. Established in 2024, this is the first of its kind in the Ivy League.
