Community Wellness Hours Quarterly Report Fall Quarter 2022

About

The Community Wellness Hours, led by the C+V Team, the Office of the Provost, and the 4D Team, were created to connect and hear from community members on a regular basis. All community members are welcome. In the Fall Quarter we handed out free snacks every Tuesday from 12pm - 2pm on the 1st floor of Community Commons and collaborated with the student-run Beans Coffee Shop in the Joy Burns Center to provide free beverages every Thursday from 9am - 11am. Approximately 1,800 attendees joined our Wellness Hours in the fall quarter.

Each week we planned an activity to engage with community members alternating between fun activities and more in-depth questions focused on what our community needs to thrive (see p. 6, Appendix A in report for activities).

This report is meant to highlight and share a snapshot of DU’s general feelings regarding community, feelings of belonging, changes witnessed, changes needed, and ideas for the future. This valuable feedback from the community has helped us with structuring our C+V work. Our hope is that through sharing our findings we can continue to address community needs, build partnerships, highlight resources and work happening at DU, and collaborate with departments for future Wellness Hours.
