Established in 2022, the HealthEU initiative aims to empower every individual in our university community to actively integrate wellness values into their daily lives, with their peers and within the broader community, by providing access to resources, educational tools, and support across the six dimensions of well-being. This will help Elon become a national model for programs, research and dialogues promoting resilience, belonging and all aspects of lifelong personal wellness.
The HealthEU Council provides strategic leadership for the HealthEU initiative. Composed of faculty and staff from a range of departments and colleges, the Council ensures institution-wide representation and collaboration. Together, members work to advance wellness and well-being at Elon University in alignment with the Boldly Elon strategic plan. The HealthEU Council is co-chaired by Elon University’s director of HealthEU initiatives and the dean of student health and well-being.
The HealthEU Student Advisory Council brings student voices to the heart of the HealthEU initiative. As a diverse group of student leaders, the council collaborates with HealthEU leadership to strengthen HealthEU programming, promote a culture of holistic wellness, and ensure that student perspectives shape the future of well‑being at Elon. Through advocacy, outreach, and innovative ideas, the council helps create a healthier, more connected campus community.
The Faculty Fellow for Wellness and Well-Being serves as a partner in campus initiatives related to health and well-being for students, faculty, and staff. The Fellow explores new and emerging initiatives, directs the Wellness Faculty Scholars Program, serves as a liaison to other faculty who want to partner in wellness, and provides insight and academic thought on university initiatives.
