Staff and faculty resources for supporting students
At Campus Wellness, we are committed to supporting each student's journey to personal well-being. We understand that a student's experience is shaped by the connections they build with the support services and the people behind them. These relationships ensure that every student can achieve physical health, mental well-being, emotional balance and spiritual safety to tackle life’s challenges with confidence, staying resilient in the face of stress and building connections.
We believe that the mental, physical and spiritual health of our students is critical to their academic success and personal well-being.
Our vision: Wellness for all students.
Our mission: Campus Wellness is committed to enhancing and supporting wellness for all in a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment. We enhance wellness at the individual, community, and systems-level through advocacy, building capacity and partnerships, providing dynamic programs and services, and strengthening communities.
