Flourishing Academic Network

FAN is a consortium of universities, government representatives, and mental health organizations who are actively reimagining higher education as a place that promotes student flourishing individually, collectively, and systemically. We enact this vision through our research, teaching, programming, advocacy, and leadership.
The Flourishing Academic Network (FAN) is a network of universities, government representatives and mental health organizations with a vision to transform higher education through a holistic approach to student wellbeing.
FAN’s unique interdisciplinary approach transcends boundaries among academic departments, student affairs, and health & wellness services. Our diverse perspectives support the development of novel research and evidence-based practices that support a holistic approach to campus life. By working at the individual, collective, and systemic levels, we aim to create sustainable models of education that nurture the whole person and the whole campus.
