Health Promotion & Wellness strives to create a community of wellness at SF State. Prioritizing students’ health in all spaces and policies must be a part of the educational and social justice mission of the university. If students are well they are more likely to reach their whole potential at SF State in the classroom and beyond.
In order to create a community of wellness faculty, staff, and administrators need tools and skills to promote health. Below are resources and opportunities for you to be part of creating a healthy SF State.
Wellness in the Virtual Classroom Toolkit
Taking small steps to support students’ well-being in the virtual classroom can have a profound impact on academic success. Use the practical strategies in this tool kit to build your wellness promotion skills and enhance your teaching pedagogy.
