ScarletWell
Supporting Your Mental Health & Wellness
ScarletWell is a public health and prevention-focused approach to mental health and wellness for our students, faculty, and staff, as part of the Rutgers–New Brunswick Academic Master Plan.
The ScarletWell Task Force is working to take stock of Rutgers–New Brunswick’s current wellness initiatives, benchmark them against those at peer institutions, recognize their strengths and gaps, and make recommendations for stronger coordination and enhancements.
ScarletWell will also develop a strategy for becoming a center of excellence in behavioral health by supporting an intellectual community of faculty who conduct research on behavioral health and wellness issues with an emphasis on population-level interventions for public health.
