For over 25 years, VSU has proudly received the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety Grant—an essential funding source for alcohol awareness and prevention programs. In the past two years, the award amount has grown, allowing even greater impact through education and outreach initiatives.

Student participation in Blazer Wellness initiatives has surged over the past year, reflecting a growing commitment to health, balance, and well-being across campus.

Empower students to make informed choices through education, outreach, and proactive prevention programs that encourage safe and healthy decisions.

Enhance visibility and accessibility of campus wellness programs so every student knows where to find the support they need to thrive.

Foster a campus environment that values balance, mindfulness, and overall well-being—supporting students in mind, body, and spirit.
