UMBC Wellness in the Workplace

Wellness Collaboration Team

We don't accomplish anything in this world alone ... and whatever happens is the result of the whole tapestry of one's life and all the weavings of individual threads from one to another that creates something.

Sandra Day O’Connor, Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court

The intention of the ‘Wellness in the Workplace Initiative’ Collaboration Team is to:
  • Partner with each other and with external vendors to provide useful and relevant health and wellness information and learning opportunities for our community.
  • Connect our community with campus health and wellness resources and support.
  • Identify how to integrate wellness practices into the work day in ways that work for various positions and departments.
  • Expand the idea and practice of “wellness” beyond personal health to include healthy relationships and a healthy work environment.
  • Raise awareness about the correlation between our lifestyle choices and wellness.
  • Encourage commitment to personal responsibility for self-care as well as tending to the health of our community.
  • Encourage sharing these perspectives and practices with others in our community.
  • Identify ways the campus can further support individuals in having a healthy life.

Summary of our Purpose:

  • Raise awareness
  • Provide information and learning opportunities
  • Connect the community to resources & support
  • Encourage commitment & support
