This event is to promote Exercise is Medicine Month and Domestic Violence Awareness Action Month. UAA is a registered Exercise is Medicine Campus and is recognized and awarded silver level status for our efforts of promoting health and fitness for the UAA community. UAA recently shared their summary of the 2019 Campus Climate Survey, which showed a high percentage of UAA students who have experienced sexual harassment/assault, dating violence, and stalking here on campus. Our response to this is to provide students with the knowledge and education to handle stressful situations with others as well as build their confidence in using that knowledge when necessary.Free and open to anyone affiliated with UAA as well as the community - bring your friends and family!
