The event will also feature the launch of the Interactive Wellbeing Map, a tool to help students in making connections, finding community, and building a healthier life at Humboldt State University. Built in Canvas, the Interactive Wellbeing Map is a guide to the non-linear process of building a foundation of wellness and health and brings together in one location all the resources available on our campus. 

The Interactive Wellbeing Map also features Choose It Yourself (C.I.Y) Health & Wellbeing Presentations that students can sign up for through the Library Skill Shops.

The CIY Skill Shops are evidence based short health education sessions created by student Peer Health Educators (PHEs) with expert oversight to ensure the right information is presented in an approachable manner. All sessions have been created by students for students in conjunction with medical professionals, therapists, and or faculty on campus. They utilize the tools of activated health education, growth mindset, social psychological interventions, and advocacy based health education in order to empower students to be proactive about their health and wellbeing.
