The Student Wellness department Is situated on the ancestral territory of the Stó:lō peoples. We recognize and hold gratitude towards the continuous contributions they have made to these lands. Through our work, we will support decolonizing health and wellness practices and bring awareness to the many ways of knowing.
Living a healthy and balanced student life can be a challenge! Student Wellness is here to help tap into your strengths and skills to support your well-being.
Our mission is to provide practical resources and educational guides to support resilience and growth in your academic learning. Check out our self-guided resources and on-campus Student Wellness and Experience Lounge's to discover more about your health & wellness.

Wellness Peers are trained student leaders who create a welcoming and supportive environment at UFV. They provide informal peer support, share helpful wellness tools, and connect students with campus and community resources. Wellness Peers also host events, lead Connection Groups, and encourage a culture of care and balance on campus.
Drop by the Student Wellness and Experience Lounge (S1111) during business hours to relax, connect with others, or see if a Wellness Peer is available to chat.
