UNC Asheville is expanding its work to support the health and well-being of communities across North Carolina. 💙

The NC Center for Health and Wellness at UNC Asheville (NCCHW) has received a $1.2 million, three-year grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Administration for Community Living (ACL) to expand programs supporting older adults and adults with disabilities.

“NCCHW is very excited to receive this grant award that will build on our collaborative statewide partnerships and successes to improve systems of care and make a significant impact on the health and well-being of older adults in North Carolina,” said NCCHW CDSME Project Director Vivian Gettys, M.P.H., M.A., R.N.

The project will connect more people with evidence-based wellness programs, behavioral health resources and community support.

Today we announced Asheville 2030: Rising to the Challenge — our roadmap for the future. 💙

The plan aims for a sustainable enrollment of 3,200 students by 2030, built around four priorities:
🎓 Future-Facing Academic Programs
💻 Technology-Integrated, Human-Centered Campus
🌟 Student Success & Experience
🚀 Career and Leadership Development

As Chancellor Kimberly van Noort said: "We take a human first approach that promotes the ethical, responsible, and flexible use of these tools — preparing [students] not just for today's careers, but for those that are yet to come." 🐾

Shaped by faculty, staff, and students together. Learn more 👉 https://www.unca.edu/asheville-2030/

The wait is over! 🎉 Work has officially begun on the campus gateways project, bringing new monument signage to our campus entrances on W.T. Weaver Boulevard, plus updates at the roundabout.

This plan has been in the works since before Helene, and thanks to approved state funding, we finally get to see the beautification efforts we've been working on since 2023 become a reality.

📍 Broadway & W.T. Weaver
📍 Merrimon Ave & W.T. Weaver
📍 The W.T. Weaver roundabout

We can't wait to show you the finished result!

Learning doesn't always happen inside a building. Sometimes it's a mountain trail, a downtown gallery, or a seat at the table with a local nonprofit. As Asheville's hometown university, we’re right in the middle of it all!
