What is the purpose of SHAB?
The purpose of SHAB is to establish a channel through which students can voice concerns and needs through to faculty and administration. The Student Health Advisory Board is a vessel, aiming to create better communication between healthcare providers and students at George Mason University. The ultimate goal is to find the most effective way to administer health care that fits the needs of the George Mason student population.
What faculty does Student Health Advisory Board work with?
The four main offices that SHAB stays in contact with are Counseling and Psychological Services, Student Health Services, Office of Disability Services, and Student Support and Advocacy Center. There are the main hubs of health care, but there are other offices and community partners that we reach out to for additional health information and event planning.
