Staying healthy takes knowledge. Our health education and promotions program offers education and awareness services. These services are designed to enrich the lives of students. The Health Services staff focuses on proactive health education and disease prevention.
We work closely with other campus departments and the community to provide educational forums, workshops, referrals, training programs, and resource materials to educate students. Topics include alcohol, stress, sleep issues, healthy relationships, sexual health, men's and women's health, cancer, nutrition, exercise, mental health issues, eating disorders, and more.
