As a larger CCW team, we prioritize our team’s well-being and actively support each other in professional development efforts, engaging in self-care practices, and creating a positive and supportive team atmosphere that fosters growth. We operate with a hybrid work schedule which includes the possibility of 1-2 days for remote work pending job duties and approval from the direct supervisor. At various times of the year, remote working days may not be approved if on-campus priorities and programs require in-person attendance.

We support student well-being and success through holistic and comprehensive programs that center wellness, safety, and healing.
