Well-being and Health Promotion supports the holistic well-being of SDSU students through one-on-one and group education, community programs, campaigns, partnerships and collaborations. Staffed with a knowledgeable team of health education professionals, interns, and peer educators, the department’s goal is to support students with all aspects of their health and well-being, including nutrition, alcohol and other drug use, sleep, healthy relationships, sexual health, violence prevention, recovery support and community, healthcare coverage support, as well as accessing resources on campus and in the community. Well-being and Health Promotion offers a variety of student leadership and engagement opportunities, including our Peer Health Educators (PHE’s), Student Health Advisory Committee (SHAC), FratMANners and SISSTER. Peer leaders plan and implement many of our campaigns and outreaches with the support of the Well-being and Health Promotion team.
According to the Department of Health and Human Services, health literacy can be broken into two categories: personal and organizational health literacies.
