He plans to increase awareness of Title IX among students, faculty and staff through various outreach efforts, including educational workshops and campus events.
“I am excited to join the Millersville University community and contribute to the University’s commitment to providing a safe and inclusive learning environment for all,” says Pereira. “I believe that the Title IX office plays a crucial role in fostering a positive and supportive campus culture.”
