Funding Amount

Leveraging available research, improve the recruitment, retention, health, and effectiveness of Professional Academic Advisors (PAAs) and support-staff, including student-assistants, through three wellness initiatives which are sustainable and on-going (i.e., funded for at least five years) and are focused on the holistic wellness and life/work-balance of our academic advising teams. Initiative 1: Creating a Wellness Den, Initiative 2: develop an online training module, Initiative 3: Employee of the Year Award. Any wellness initiatives could be integrated campus-wide and, ideally, scaled to other campuses within our California State University (CSU) system, and ultimately other Colleges/Universities.
