Well-Being at Kean - Employee Events
Building a Culture of Wellness & Community
Throughout the year, Well-Being at Kean programming includes on campus and virtual events, Personify Health challenges, information sessions, workshops, and more - all to bolster your own well-being during your time at Kean. We work to support each of the 4 main dimensions of well-being and we hope you will join us on this journey as we create a space for everyone to develop healthy habits and be well!
Our semesterly events calendar includes a wide array of programs and events for you to chose from, including two main event themes:
Core Events

Financial
This includes understanding financial processes related to savings, income, and debt, while utilizing resources to achieve long-term goals towards future financial objectives. It also includes learning to live within your means, making informed financial decisions and investments, and setting short and long-term goals.
Social
Social well-being involves creating a sense of belonging through relationships and meaningful, authentic interactions with others. Your community network is made up of the people around you; your peers, mentors, faculty, family and colleagues. This may include communication, navigating conflict, boundary setting, and mutual respect regardless of our differences.
