Program Abstract:
Leaders of campus well-being are expanding their framework beyond just physical health. An action collaboration model can help create a vision, leadership structure, and processes to move swiftly into action. The American Cancer Society and the Partnership for a Healthier America are collaborating to pilot this model, with advancing equity as a central principle of this joint initiative. The goal is to address the changing needs of today's college student – which are increasingly non-traditional.
