Life moves fast, especially when you’re managing commitments at work and responsibilities around the home. It’s easy to fall into a pattern of grabbing pre-packaged snacks in between meetings or tasks.
But with a little planning, you can break the cycle. Healthy snacks abound, and some of them can help you manage stress.
Have nutrition-related questions? The Wellness Committee invites you to explore a wealth of resources at Providence Basecamp, including Ask the RD, which allows you to get answers to questions from a registered dietician.
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, and the Office of Inclusive Excellence invites you to join us in preventing sexual assault, abuse and harassment. We are partnering with multiple departments on campus as well as local community partners to provide you information, resources and care.

We hope that you will join the conversation and participate in one of our events below. Together, we can practice loving our neighbors, classmates, teammates and coworkers by knowing the warning signs and speaking up.
