The Wellness Committee works with department and institutional leadership as well as members of our divisions to create a professionally fulfilling workplace for our faculty. 

It promotes effective well-being policies, leadership, and scholarship to enhance faculty comradery and community. 

It is developing a well-being plan that includes specific, actionable recommendations for how to incorporate faculty well-being into practice and operational improvement—based on the best evidence and aligned with UW Health well-being recommendations.
