Annual Awareness Campaigns to Improve Campus Health & Well-being
The Student Health and Wellness team is joining forces with Student Affairs offices across campus to strengthen health and wellbeing by hosting eight awareness campaigns this year—inviting you to get involved and take action!
- Why This Matters: The 2023 Campus Climate Survey found that 48.4% of students feel their health and well-being is a priority at the U. That number shows progress, but also opportunity—to ensure even more students feel supported. With record-breaking enrollment year after year, the University of Utah continues to grow as a dynamic community. That growth makes it more important than ever to raise awareness of health and wellness across campus.
- What We’re Doing: As part of Student Affairs’ Adapting to Student Needs strategic plan, one of our core initiatives is to optimize health and wellness access for students. One way we’re doing this is by expanding awareness campaigns—led by the Center for Campus Wellness. Each campaign includes events, workshops, and peer-to-peer opportunities hosted across Student Affairs offices.
