At Humber, we value the health and well-being of our staff and students and want to support YOU every step of the way. 

To support this commitment, Humber has launched humber.ca/healthyYOU, an online healthy community hub that is a central site for well-being resources for students and employees. 

The Hub also includes Humber’s Well-being Strategy, which focuses on four pillars: mental, physical, financial, and social health and well-being. We provide support to the overall health and well-being of our employees through a variety of resources and initiatives.

Employees and students are taught how to make healthy food choices and lifestyle decisions a permanent part of their daily lives. Community members can also sign-up for massage therapy treatment sessions, have their hearing tested, and register for fitness assessments.
