Prepping, Planning, and Prioritizing Mental Health: Finals Week Edition

Jason Wills on ACC’s decades of ESG leadership and future plans

We released American Campus Communities’ 2023 Impact Report: Live Responsibly, which details the ways we create healthy, sustainable environments with a sense of community and connection by giving back, investing in our team members and driving long-term value for all stakeholders.

Some of the highlights include reducing our greenhouse gas emissions by nearly 10% since 2022, being named to Newsweek’s list of Most Trustworthy Companies in America for the second year in a row and increasing the diversity of our leadership. Although our report covers our work over the last year, our achievements are enabled by the strong foundation of ESG strategies and practices we’ve put into place over the last two decades.
