SMTD’s three MHealthy Champions, Paola Savvidou (Wellness Initiative Program Manager and LEO Lecturer III), Becky Olsen (Academic Advisor Senior), and Sarah Erlewine (Director of Marketing & Communications for Ticketed Performances), received the LaVaughn Palma-Davis Wellness Committee award as part of the annual seminar held at the North Campus Research Building. The award recognizes Wellness Committees who positively affect the culture of well-being in their department.
The SMTD committee has facilitated hundreds of mindfulness sessions through yoga and meditation, led multiple walking groups and Active U teams, and arranged other programs such as visits from therapy dogs, virtual cooking demos, and more. We congratulate Paola, Becky, and Sarah on a well-deserved honor.
