What does it mean to become a Thrive partner?
UBC Thrive is a campus-wide initiative designed to promote positive mental health for all students, faculty and staff. Thrive exists to encourage dialogue about balance, community engagement, social support, and healthy lifestyle choices.
By partnering with Thrive, you or your group can contribute to this dialogue and support positive mental health at UBC.
