Get Involved
Wellness Supports - Health Promotion on campus is led by our Team Coordinator with the support of student staff and volunteers. Each volunteer selects a working group to participate in during both fall and winter semesters. On a team consisting of 3-5 students, you share in the common goal striving for our campus to be a healthy place to study, work, live and play. Read below to find out which working group best suits your passions and skills:
