Wellness

Wellness involves the awareness of our current state of health in multiple dimensions with the initiative, tools and support to make lasting changes towards a more optimal life. Wellness is the pursuit of your best possible health and well-being. It is an overall balance of your physical, social, spiritual, emotional, intellectual, environmental, and occupational well-being. Health is a goal one can achieve while wellness is a dynamic concept that continues for a lifetime.

The Objectives of the UCFSD Wellness Council is to research and identify best practices related to improving student health. Through the use of various communication channels, the Wellness Council will educate our students and community about health and wellness in order to inspire healthy lifestyles.
