Play a role during this year’s Thrive Week by hosting an event or activity that supports mental health literacy through the Thrive 5: moving regularly, sleeping soundly, eating to feel nourished, helping others and connecting socially.
The Okanagan Thrive organizing committee is hosting two partner-planning meetings on September 19 from 9 to 10 a.m. in room ART 112 and on October 3 from 12 noon to 1 p.m. in room ART 202. If you’re interested in learning more about hosting an event, contact thrive.okanagan@ubc.ca. If your department or unit would like to host a Thrive event, register at: ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0CWfwBDf9OfbUnH.
Faculty members can also highlight Thrive in the classroom. And everyone on campus is invited to be a promotional partner.
