Who We Are
Meet the Health Promotion Staff
The Health Promotion Department advances the health and well-being of UC Berkeley students through individual and environmental initiatives.
Key strategies include academic courses, individual appointments, workshops, volunteer and internship opportunities, and consultation and training.
Alcohol & Other Drugs (AOD)
Our goal is to engage, educate, and empower all stakeholders in order to reduce risk and harm in the campus area related to alcohol and other drugs. The PartySafe program leverages 5 Strategies to create a campus alcohol and other drugs (AOD) culture that supports all who study, live, work & play in the campus area.
