ACHA Faculty and Staff Health and Wellness Coalition

Faculty and Staff Health and Wellness
Coalition

Coalitions provide a multi-disciplinary, topic-oriented organizational mechanism with broad geographic representation for continuing education; advocacy; knowledge; standards; and professional development. They enhance channels of communication among members with different professional backgrounds to address common issues in college health and expand membership participation opportunities in the association. Coalitions serve as an information and consultative resource for ACHA members and other communities of interest, and help create informational and educational resources, guidelines, and/or best practices. They are available to advise the Board of Directors on relevant policy issues and plan, solicit, or facilitate programming at ACHA and affiliate annual meetings.

If you would like to learn more about this group or have a question related to this topic, contact the chairperson listed below.

The purpose of the ACHA Faculty and Staff Health and Wellness
coalition is:

To encourage the inclusion of the campus community as a whole in college health efforts in order to build healthy environments that optimize learning.
To provide a mechanism for the exchange of information, resources, and research-based best practices to address the health and wellness of faculty and staff on campus.
To provide continuing education and professional development across ACHA.

Please note: Any ACHA individual member (Regular, Student, Associate, or Emeritus) may join a coalition; however, only Regular Individual and Student Members may vote or hold office in a coalition.
