Our names are Sakina and Jacob and we are the co-chairs for Healthy Relationships Month. We both work in Center for Campus Wellness as an ACES Peer Health Educator (Sakina) and a Men’s Engagement Ambassador (Jacob). We want to welcome you to Healthy Relationships Month and give you a little bit of background.
Next week is Stalking Awareness Week and we are excited to engage with our campus community around this important issue! How much do you know about stalking? Where have you learned about it? For many of us, all we know is what we’ve seen in the media – TV shows, the news, movies and socials shape our understanding of stalking and much of what we’ve learned is pretty problematic and dangerous.
Jessi is no stranger to collegiate wellness. In fact, she has worked on several college campuses across Utah before joining us here at the U.
As the semester comes to a close, stress levels naturally rise across campus. Not only that, the winter holiday season is often fraught with worry and brings about mixed feelings among students. Between tending to loved ones and studying for demanding classes, the end of the year can be a bittersweet time for many. During this busy time, it’s important to continue to take care of oneself.
Finals week is just around the corner. We asked our wellness coaches about self-care and prioritizing wellness during this stressful time.
