Burridge Student Association

We are reaching out on behalf of the Building Affordable Student Housing in College Towns of Nova Scotia Partnership. This research partnership between Student Housing Nova Scotia, Nova Scotia Community College, and principal investigator Dr. Shelagh McCartney from the School of Urban and Regional Planning at Toronto Metropolitan University was formed to learn more about student housing experiences in Nova Scotia in order to build towards student housing solutions.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the relationship between student housing and holistic student success and wellbeing in Nova Scotia. Learnings will build towards housing policy, program and design solutions that better meet both student preferences and needs.

If you would like to volunteer to participate, you can access the survey by visiting: https://shorturl.at/Ff6RM

Welcome to the Active Living Program!

The goal of the Active Living Program is to encourage, support, and motivate Nova Scotia Community College students, staff, and faculty to embrace more holistically healthy lifestyle.

We will work to align the program closely with the college’s Mental Wellness Strategy and consider the Eight Dimensions of Wellness, which include physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, environmental, financial, occupational, and social aspects. It has been established that taking the whole person into account addresses a larger number of opportunities to help and support the community.

Each we'll provide guidance, resources, information and more for you to explore this idea. And of course, interactions with our community can help others discover and learn too, so we hope to get some good conversations and feedback here. More information about the 8 Dimensions of Wellness can be found here:

https://www.goodtherapy.org/.../8-dimensions-of-wellness...

To start with, we'd like to hear from you. Let us know in the comments what you consider to be active living as it relates to your own wellness. Your response will get you into a draw for an Active Living prize package to kick things off. We'll announce the winner next Wednesday.

Make sure you vote! You have until 8 AM on the 27th - make your voice heard!
