Who We Are

Our certified peer wellness educators, formerly known as the Healthy Rebels, are making an impact at UNLV. Through events, workshops, social media, and more they develop leadership skills, build community, and empower the campus to live a healthy lifestyle. If you love wellness and want to meet others who do too, we might be the group for you!

Become An Active Minds

The goal of Active Minds is to spread a positive message about mental health issues, and reduce the negative stigma that accompanies them.

One in four people will experience mental health issues in their life, and a majority will refuse to seek treatment due to the negative stigma surrounding mental health. We believe it is important to promote healthy conversations about mental health, help early prevention, encourage help seeking behaviors, and promote hope for those who have been diagnosed.

Active Minds hosts socials and on-campus events aimed at reducing stigma and promoting mental wellness.

Join The Peer Recovery Community

As members of the UNLV Peer Recovery Community, UNLV students recovering from substance addiction and their allies are able to cultivate an uplifting community and destigmatize recovery in college. Centering health and wellness, this group offers peer-to-peer workshops, guest speaker seminars, sober social events, and more encompassing the 8 dimensions of wellness.
 
Through the UNLV Peer Recovery Community, students can gain meaningful friendships and peer support in navigating their college experience while living a substance-free lifestyle.
