Our Story

Healthy living is a choice and a lifestyle, but unless you’re in a supportive environment, it can be challenging. In 2013, UCLA Chancellor Gene Block announced the UCLA Semel Healthy Campus Initiative (HCI) Center, a vision of Jane and Terry Semel and supported by them. Originating at the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, Semel HCI Center is fostering a culture of physical, emotional, and social well-being.

VISION

To make the UCLA the healthiest place to work, learn, and live and to inspire other communities both locally and beyond.
