Brewing Wellness

UFT Member Assistance Program

Brewing Wellness is a podcast created by the UFT Member Assistance Program to support the mental health and well-being of our members. We know that in order to do the work you do every day and be there for your loved ones, students and patients your cup has to be brewing with wellness. Brewing Wellness focuses on the topics around mental health and wellness that we all need to thrive in our professional and personal lives. A new episode is released on the final Monday of each month. Listen to Brewing Wellness wherever you get your podcasts. It's available on iTunes, Spotify, Google Podcasts and SoundCloud.
