Mission

The Lobo Well-Being team provides service through collaboration within the University and greater community. Our aim is to provide stability for students in their immediate circumstances and to help them build skills for ongoing personal agency.

We achieve this by acting as a resource for students, offering direct service and collaborating on wellness-oriented programming with the UNM community.
