Lifestyle Enhancement Program

Lifestyle Enhancement classes aim to support staff and faculty of ISU, their spouses/partners, retirees of ISU and ISU Alums. Most of the programs are held conveniently during the workday to provide greater access to opportunities that advance the personal wellness of faculty and staff.

Wellness Participation Policy Since 1984 Illinois State University has offered a Wellness Participation Policy because the Institution values it's staff and faculty. Employees may request up to 90 minutes per week to participate in activities that improve their well-being. For further details read the policy link below. Wellness Participation Policy at ISU
