- Cultivating partnerships with campus organizations to enhance and support physical activity programming, infrastructure, and environment on all campuses;
- Promoting physical activity offerings on all UNH campuses; and
- Educating the UNH community about the benefits of lifelong physical activity to encourage active lifestyles.
