BeWell hosts and supports a number of virtual Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) on Google Spaces. ERGs are voluntary, employee-led groups whose aim is to bring together faculty and staff with similar interests to foster connection and a sense of belonging. Notification settings can be customized to reduce distractions and suit personal preferences. Email ucabewell@uca.edu to be added to any of the Spaces.
