The UConn Wellness Coalition and OPIM Innovate are excited to host UConn’s second campus-wide Innovate Wellness Challenge. Over the past two years, the Wellness Coalition has brought together students, staff, and faculty from across campus to work towards one vision: UConn is a thriving, connected campus community that supports the full potential of every student. This vision is only possible if students fully embrace it.

This year, undergraduate student teams will address student stress. Students have the best vantage point to take on this challenge and we need new thinking from our talented, innovative students. Through this challenge you will use the Design Thinking Process, build your skills and resumé, work with students, staff, and faculty, have the chance to implement your solutions, and win up to $2,250!

The Innovate Wellness Challenge is composed of three rounds:

1. Poster Presentations
2. Semi-Final Presentations
3. Final Presentations

We value student voices and are looking for creative solutions that allow and encourage students to share their ideas for empowering students to reach their full potential both in and outside of the classroom.

In both research and practice, spirituality is a core dimension of holistic wellness. When we are spiritually well, we feel an authentic connection to something greater than ourselves. Through this connection, we create a set of core values, principles, and beliefs that guide us in our daily actions. Spiritual wellness promotes resiliency, clarifies purpose and fosters a sense of community belonging – all of which contribute to our ability to grow and flourish throughout our lives.
