UCL Wellness Options
UCL’s goal is to make sure all our employees are able to meet their individual needs and we encourage wellness breaks; however, this should be discussed on a case-by-case basis between employee and supervisor.
UCL has a channel called "Health and Wellness" found in the "University Connected Learning" Team on Microsoft Teams. In this channel, you can find info about group exercise options to walk through Research Park or around campus, run on the trails up behind Red Butte Gardens, or cycle with groups of co-workers up Emigration Canyon. The possibilities are endless!
This channel is a place where anyone can post information about health and wellness programs, readings, or tips to share.
Victim-Survivor Advocacy
Victim-Survivor Advocates provide free, confidential, and trauma-informed support services to students, faculty, and staff who have experienced interpersonal violence (i.e., domestic and dating violence, sexual assault and rape, sexual harassment, stalking, etc.)
We believe in empowering you to make informed decisions around your healing and justice. We will assist you in navigating any resources, processes, and/or services that feel relevant and helpful to you.
