HEALTH & WELLNESS

Health & Wellness Committee

In Health & Wellness Committee, we focus on advocating for every student's overall wellbeing. Our work encompasses areas such as mental, physical, social, and emotional health for a holistic approach to student health. Our reach extends from resolution writing and advocacy for change at a University-wide level, to hosting events, to working on other health-related projects. We are attentive to both current issues that need to be addressed, and engage in preventative efforts to ensure everyone has the best chance to succeed, which begins with a solid, healthy foundation.

Our committee often collaborates with other stakeholders in health and wellness efforts across campus. Some of these collaborators are directors at Boynton Health, Student Counseling Services, the Disability Resource Center, the Office of Student Affairs, and The Aurora Center. Additionally, we represent the student perspective on health topics in other committees at the University, including the Student Health Advisory Committee, the President's Initiative for Student Mental Health, the RecWell Advisory Board, and the Student Affairs Mental Health Advisory Committee.
