Peer Health Team
The role of the Peer Health Advocate is to work with Student Life to promote an atmosphere on campus that facilitates the spiritual, social, emotional, physical and intellectual well-being of our students. As part of the Peer Health Team, Peer Health Advocates help to raise awareness around mental health and wellness through various programming and events. They will also listen and respond to student concerns, making referrals to Student Life, counselling services, and other campus resources. Team members are Ambrose students that have completed one year of studies on campus, and work closely with the Wellness Office.
To contact the Peer Health Team, please email wellness@ambrose.edu.
