Wellness Programming

 The EOP Wellness Program is designed to facilitate student engagement in a series of workshops and events centered around enhancing both physical and mental wellbeing. These events are exclusively tailored for our EOP students, who may not have otherwise had access to such opportunities due to their socio-economic backgrounds. Participation in the EOP Wellness Program is reserved for students who meet specific criteria, namely being an EOP student, a first-generation college student, a California resident, or a member of an EOP program cohort.

The range of Wellness Events offered varies from quarter to quarter, and the program collaborates with other on-campus initiatives to deliver meaningful experiences. Additionally, we partner with local vendors to offer diverse activities such as kayaking in Monterey, ceramics classes at reputable Santa Cruz shops, cooking classes, and hikes.
