Wellness Promotion
The Office of Wellness Promotion (formerly Wellness Education) is an integral part of the Student Health Center. Our mission is to promote the life-long physical and emotional well-being of our students by providing strong, effective disease prevention, health promotion and educational services. We accept and support the National Wellness Institute definition of Wellness: Wellness is an active process through which people become aware of, and make choices towards, a more successful existence. Our initiatives include both community and individual approaches addressing multiple dimensions of wellness: physical, emotional, social, intellectual, occupational, and spiritual.
