Welcome!
The Health Education and Promotion staff is here to help you feel your best! Your academic, social, research, and athletic endeavors can all be enhanced by adequate self-care. As a student, you are navigating stress, studying, sleep, healthy snacks, relationships and more. You are also inundated with messages about what you should be doing to care for your body, mind and spirit while trying to make the best decisions for yourself. We know there is often a gap between knowing and doing. That's why we're here. We can help you translate new knowledge about your health and wellbeing into action.
The habits you establish in college can last a lifetime, so now is a great time to get to know yourself, figure out what strategies help you cope and perform your best, tweak your routines, and let go of some of the behaviors that ultimately bring you down. You are also a part of a community at Emory, a new "family" of sorts, and we look out for each other. Your behavior, for better or worse, affects the wellbeing of the people around you. If you know someone who is struggling with stress, relationship difficulties, drugs or alcohol, too much junk food - you name it! - we can help. Please join with us to create a healthy campus culture at Emory.
Our Mission
Health Education and Promotion at Emory University Student Health Services contributes to success in and out of the classroom by encouraging students to take responsibility for their lifelong wellness. Using strategies that are student-oriented, evidence-based, and dynamic, we challenge students to develop beliefs and habits that advance personal and community health.
