Health And Wellness

Faculty and staff at Dana Hall know that the health and wellness of their students is integral to academic and overall success. With that in mind, the School's health goals are simple: encourage confidence and self-empowerment in Dana students and strengthen their ability to have sound judgment and make healthy decisions.

Health and Wellness programming affirms the “whole student” and and gives her the tools she needs for a healthy and meaningful life. Members of the Health and Wellness Committee work to insure that the program takes a collaborative and interdisciplinary approach, through a variety of programs, events and facilitators.
