The majority of Health Promotion staff are health educators who coordinate educational and outreach activities that promote the health and well-being of Cal students. This includes academic health courses, workshops, individual appointments, peer education and volunteer opportunities, and consultation and training. In addition, we have a director, a program analyst, an administrative supervisor, and several student employees who help to manage the daily operations of our unit.
