Well-Being and Health Promotion
The Well-Being and Health Promotion team leads, facilitates, promotes, and participates in collective, systemic and innovative action for student health and well-being at CUIMC. We conceptualize well-being as both dynamic and contextual, acknowledging that students’ diverse identities and lived experiences intersect with the culture and environment at CUIMC. In partnership with students, staff, and faculty, we work to co-create an equitable and just campus community in which the people, programs, practices, policies, and spaces foster student health and well-being.
