Health Education

Purpose

The Center for Campus Wellness takes a judgment-free, harm reduction approach to health education, which is the foundation of our programming. 
We believe that all students (and individuals!) should have easy access to health information so that they can make informed choices to improve their wellbeing. 

Our programs meet students wherever they are so that they can make healthier and safer decisions. We provide connections to resources, hold space for community, provide education and training, and conduct awareness campaigns to encourage students to take action toward their overall success.
