UVA Cares Committee

Charge:

The purpose for the UVA CARES Committee is to consider effective ways to support short- and long-term programs that help improve UVa students’ health and well-being in relation to eating disorders and body image issues, as well as improve the response and intervention guidelines among faculty, staff and students. The committee should be proactive in identifying these key issues, and should work to ensure that sufficient resources are being dedicated to address such issues. At a minimum, the Committee should meet at least six times during the academic year.
