Many studies indicate strong correlations between health and academic performance, student retention, and satisfaction levels. Student Affairs’ Big Red Resilience and Well-being (BRRWB) supports the strategic priority: Create transformational experiences that contribute to student retention and success. BRRWB helps students understand negative experiences while helping them identify ways to thrive moving forward. Students will become active, confident participants in their own development through self-care practices, supportive social connections, and innovative well-being resources. This lunch and learn session will provide the background for establishing BRRWB, discuss specific initiatives, and engage participants in BRRWB self-care activities.
