Office of Health Promotion
The Office of Health Promotion(OHP) provides wellness education about responsible substance use, mental health resources, and comprehensive sexual health education. Through health promotion and awareness, we equip UNC students with the necessary tools to make safer decisions to create a healthy campus experience for all. OHP provides workshops and trainings that cover a wide range of important health topics led by our student certified Peer Health Educators.
Supporting your mental health—together at UNC, because well-being starts with support.
At UNC, we’re deeply committed to the emotional well-being of our students and our entire campus community. That’s why we’re part of the JED Campus program—a national initiative that helps schools take a comprehensive, public health approach to promoting mental health, preventing suicide, and reducing serious substance misuse. JED’s recommendations center equity—making sure the unique needs of underserved and marginalized students are thoughtfully and intentionally addressed. We know that mental health can be impacted by racism, bias, and systemic barriers, and we’re working to create a campus where every student feels seen, supported, and safe. This partnership helps us grow stronger, together.
