Wellness
Building and supporting a culture of wellness.
At Uplift Oregon, wellness is not limited to any one area, but encompasses healthy habits in areas like physical, mental, financial, and community health. Overall, there are eight pillars of wellness that impact your life, and by gaining knowledge in them, you can improve them. We believe that employees are better off when wellness is a priority, and workplaces are more effective.
We have upcoming workshops, in partnership with Kaiser Permanente, that can provide you knowledge to better care for yourself and others. These workshops are free and available to any state employee whether or not Kaiser Permanente is your provider.
