Meet Your Mentor

Alison Campbell

How long have you worked at Positive Alternatives?

I worked as a Resident Counselor in 2021 and as a Case Manager in 2024.

Where are you from?

My hometown is Andover, MN, and I live in Eau Claire now.

What drew you to working in this field?

I dealt with some personal traumas and struggles in my life, as everyone does, and one day, I put it into perspective that some people have fewer resources than I did to work through those difficult times, and that if I could be there for others, I'd like to help.

What is your educational background?

I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire with a minor in English.

What is your favorite mentoring activity?

I love being creative, so anything related to painting, drawing, crafting, etc., is a great way to focus on something other than life's problems and create something new.

What is your favorite thing about being a mentor?

Connecting with and getting to know others.

Passions & Pursuits

I'm a big movie buff, I love music, art, video games, and reading. When it's nice out, I like being outside, swimming, playing tennis with friends (I'm not very good, though), and going on walks.
