What is the APHD Self-Care Challenge?
A way to encourage our community of faculty, staff and students to support each other in making healthy choices and ensure we take care of ourselves.

  • APHD Student team
  • APHD Lab team 
  • APHD Staff/Faculty team
  • Individual (we’ll place you in a team. This is a great way to meet other members of our community!)
 
2.You will engage in self-care activities from November 8-19 (weekdays only) and post them in the form of an image on Quercus. Your team will be awarded points for each self-care activity posted.
 
 
How will points be awarded?
1 self-care activity (1 post) = 1 point.
 
We’ll keep track of your activities each week and update you on how the teams are doing.
