The UHS Health Promotion Resource Center helps UT students get and stay healthy with a variety of resources. We support the mission of University Health Services by offering programs that help prevent health conditions or health-related behaviors from being a barrier to a student's academic and personal success. The UHS Health Promotion Resource Center, through leadership in the UT Wellness Network, works with our partners across the university to create a campus culture that values and fosters wellness.

For information on how to request a peer-led workshop, visit the classes and workshops page. To find out more about becoming a Peer Educator, visit the "Volunteer With Us" page.
