Welcome to our new series on communities of practice where we ask our partner organizations to help us better understand both how they see the Penn Community and to describe the types of practices they use to engage others in their work on campus. We begin by talking with leaders of Wellness at Penn, Benoit Dubé: Chief Wellness Officer and Associate Professor of Clinical Psychiatry at the Perelman School of Medicine at Penn; Ashlee Halbritter: Director of Campus Health at Penn; and Batsi Bvunzawabaya Director of Outreach and Prevention Services, Psychologist at Counseling and Psychological services at Penn.

To shape our thinking here we are using the definition of a community of practice created by the non-profit Campus Compact: Community of Practice “is a learning community, or collegial network, defined as ‘a group of people who share interest in an area of inquiry and engage in collective learning about that issue as it relates to their work or practice. Through discussions, joint activities, and relationship building, the community of practice develops a shared and individual repertoire of resources, skills, and knowledge to use in their practice.”
