Introducing the New Collaborative Wellness Project Cohort!

The Collaborative Wellness Project is a cross-campus initiative at Macaulay Honors College that is designed to assess wellness needs across our community and implement supportive programming, policy, and resources. This interdisciplinary project, with guidance from the JED Foundation, is now entering it’s fourth semester.

As part of the student cohort, students explore the different facets of wellness and how they intersect with the Macaulay college experience. Students attend trainings and meetings as a cohort, in-person and virtually, that focus on developing understanding of resources and how to support their peers. Working both independently and in groups, students create programming on their campuses, share and develop resources, and conduct individual projects.

What started as a Macaulay fellowship focused on understanding New York City’s housing challenges has grown into a national opportunity for six students to take action on homelessness.

In the fall of 2025, Ada Liang ’26 (Baruch) Annick Niyonsaba ’28 (Baruch), Yang Yang Ou ’26 (Baruch), Alexander Shearman ’28 (Hunter), Emily Tiwary ’28 (Hunter), and Batya Yelloz ’27 (College of Staten Island), first came together through Civic Futures Lab, a unique partnership between Macaulay Honors College and World Studios. The program gives students an opportunity to work directly on some of New York City’s biggest challenges, learning from community members, nonprofit organizations, and government agencies while developing projects of their own.

“Civic Futures did not turn me into a ‘policy wonk,’ but it did allow me to grow into my own interests,” Batya says. “The work I did in the program influenced future research and projects I plan to take on that explore themes of housing access.”
