Connecting with Community

The sense of engagement and connection one has with where they live and a feeling of both safety and pride in one’s community. Striving for wellness in this dimension involves connecting with groups (formal and informal) and the Elon community. Strong community well-being means one takes ownership of their overall wellness, has a sense of belonging, invests their time in contributing to the wellness of their community, and is dedicated to doing something meaningful within their community. ​
