Community & Connection Learning Series
The Office of Well-Being, in collaboration with several CUIMC partners across the institution, host informational sessions aimed at cultivating empathy and community connection by providing tools to promote effective communication and enhancing our understanding of diverse perspectives.
Our programming has concluded for the summer and we are currently developing additional programming for the fall. We will update the community once that information is available.
In the meantime, we encourage you to review our list of previously recorded sessions below. If you have any questions or suggestions for future sessions or workshops, please reach out to the Office of Well-Being at well-being@cumc.columbia.edu.
