As part of College of Western Idaho’s (CWI) commitment to student wellbeing, CWI is participating in a statewide initiative with the Idaho College Health Coalition. This fall, most of Idaho’s public colleges and universities will be administering the National College Health Assessment (NCHA), a comprehensive survey designed to better understand the health and wellness of our students.
Beginning Monday, Oct. 20, CWI students will receive an email invitation from NCHA to complete the survey. Survey topics include mental health, substance use, nutrition, physical activity, sleep, and other key areas of life that impact student success.
How You Can Help
Faculty and staff are encouraged to help raise awareness and support student participation. The data collected will inform future wellness programming, services, and campus and statewide initiatives. Students who complete the survey by Nov. 14 will be entered to win one of 29 prizes, including a portable projector, noise-cancelling headphones, weighted blanket, tabletop firepit, and more.
