LiveWell Services
LiveWell offers a variety of services for students at the University of Washington in Seattle.
Alcohol & Other Drug (AOD) consults
The LiveWell Alcohol and Other Drug (AOD) Coordinator is a professional staff member who offers 1-1 consults with students around alcohol and/or other drugs. AOD consultations are for anyone who wants to learn more and reflect on their individual consumption behaviors of alcohol or other substance use.
Confidential Advocacy
LiveWell Confidential Advocacy provides a safe and confidential space to help individuals identify what they want or need after an incident of sexual assault, relationship violence, or stalking has occurred. 1-1 appointments with a Confidential Advocate are available for UW faculty and staff (from any campus including UW Medicine), and undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Washington in Seattle.
Peer Wellness Coaching
Peer Wellness Coaching (PWC) is offered by our Peer Health Educators for UW students. Student staff go through in-depth training and supervision to be able to serve as Peer Wellness Coaches. 1-1 PWC appointments are a great option for students who are looking to strengthen and enhance their personal well-being, solve problems effectively, and work toward intentional change in their lives and self.
Student Needs Navigation
LiveWell provides low-income UW students with resources and information about local services and programs that address basic needs. The LiveWell Student Needs Navigator can assist with connections to programs like food banks, information about King County Housing Authority and other low-cost and local shelter resources, how to apply for state funded health insurance, Husky Health medical care options, and more.
Suicide Intervention Program (SIP)
The Suicide Intervention Program (SIP) connects students to resources when incidents of concern related to suicidal thoughts and actions are shared with the University. SIP meetings are held with a professional staff member who works with students to come up with a plan for care. If a situation warrants an immediate response, individuals should contact 911.
Tabling Events
UW communities and groups can schedule LiveWell tabling events. Peer Health Educators table at events and fairs spreading LiveWell’s services and peer-to-peer dialogue for students around health and well-being.
Workshops
LiveWell workshops are evidence-informed educational workshops that are primarily student-led (by PHEs, LiveWell’s highly trained student employees) for students. Workshops can be requested by UW communities and groups and they cover a variety of health and wellness topics aimed at promoting life-long behaviors that support health, self-growth, and meaningful connection.
