Interventions

• ThriveCircle Peer-Led Well-Being Groups — BEHAVIORAL
  The ThriveCircle intervention consists of peer-led small-group sessions designed to strengthen connection, reflection, and well-being among faculty. Groups of 6-8 participants meet in person six times over six months to engage in structured conversations about meaning in work, shared challenges, professional identity, and resilience, using a standardized discussion guide. Sessions include shared meals to promote community and engagement. Each group is self-facilitated by a faculty participant who receives brief training and a turnkey toolkit that includes facilitation guides, scheduling resources, fidelity checklists, and adaptation logs.
