Student Wellness Leaders play a critical role in supporting their peers in the battle against food and basic needs insecurities while promoting education, safety, and awareness on social issues. They work to inform peers about lifestyle and wellness issues in a positive, interactive, fun, and nonjudgmental manner.

By facilitating discussions and workshops on topics such as dating, sexual health, and healthy relationships, Student Wellness Leaders provide educational programs that raise awareness, offer information, and connect peers with essential resources and referrals.

Student Wellness Leaders also support the organization and distribution of basic needs items, such as food and hygiene items, through campus pantries and Mobile Markets.
