Health Education

The Health Education Team at Gator Health and Well-being creates student opportunities to learn and practice healthy behaviors through advocacy, campaigns, programs, workshops, leadership and one-on-one and community engagement.

The Health Education Team at GHW will help you on your SFSU journey. The office organizes dozens of free and accessible wellness events and programs focusing on topics from nutrition and sexual health to social and emotional wellness. The Health Education team knows that a sense of community is key to success, so the team focuses on tailoring resources for different populations and opportunities to bring like-minded individuals together. Stop by a cooking demo in the Quad (and enjoy a free sample) or get stress relief petting some therapy animals or participating in an art event.
