The Health Promotion Services (HPS) provides a welcoming learning experience for students where they can raise their awareness of health and wellness through peer-to-peer experiences.  A variety of resources are available that include technical assistance, workshops, student trainings, annual wellness events, pamphlets and learning tools that promote a healthy collegiate campus community.

In addition, this age group is heavily targeted by the tobacco industry with concert and bar promotions. Students that are thinking and determined quit can start their journey.  To get started, click here.
