Claire Erlenborn (she/her) serves as the Campus Minister for Pastoral Care at Loyola University Chicago. Her work focuses on retreats for undergraduate students, grief support both individually and in groups, as well as advocacy for students on the margins. Prior to this role, Claire worked with survivors of sexual violence at Northeastern University, with young adults experiencing homelessness at Bridge Over Troubled Waters, and with high school students at Villanova Prep High School while volunteering with the Augustinian Volunteers.  

Claire completed her Masters degrees in social work and theology at Boston College and loves how college campus ministry is a space where she can bridge both these degrees. She also attended Boston College for undergrad, where she majored in Psychology and English while minoring in Theology. Her undergraduate experience with service immersion trips and service-learning courses ignited her passion for justice and theology. In her free time, Claire loves rock climbing, playing Dungeons and Dragons, doing yoga, and swimming in Lake Michigan.
