Wellness Resource Center


Welcome to the KU's Wellness Resource Center!
We strive to serve as the source for the KU community wellness through parternships that create and support innovative approached for achiving optimal health, and maximizing academic and professional success.

It is important for us to realize that the choices we make (or allow others to make for us) impact us for the rest of our lives. Making healthy choices is a life long privilege.

The Wellness Resource Center is at your service to provide you with information and support in making informed decisions about your health and wellness. You are born with one body and given the ultimate responsibility of maintaining and taking care of it. You can accomplish this by starting now to make healthy, informed choices when it comes to nutrition, fitness, alcohol and drug use, and sexual behavior (KU 101: Learning and Growing Within Our KU Community).

We focus on health and wellness promotion and offer individual consultations and support in the areas of:

  • sexual and reproductive health
  • substance use and abuse
  • sexual assault
  • stress management
  • self esteem
  • HIV/AIDS education
  • sexually transmitted diseases
