We’re excited to announce that LiveWell Northern WI has officially shortened its name to LiveWell and is now an initiative of the Pruitt Center for Mindfulness and Well-Being at UW-Superior.

Since its launch in Fall 2022, LiveWell has provided opportunities for our community to connect, find joy, and enhance their well-being. Led by UW-Superior faculty and staff, and supported by the Miller-Dwan Foundation, Essentia Health St. Mary’s Superior Hospital, the Superior Rotary and many community partners, LiveWell has hosted 141 events with over 1,100 participants.

Beginning in 2025, LiveWell will continue to grow and expand its reach as part of the Pruitt Center for Mindfulness and Well-Being. This exciting transition aligns perfectly with the Center’s mission and opens new opportunities for enhancing wellness throughout our community. We are grateful for the continued support from our philanthropic partners to make this possible. 

BetterTogether activities are mini-activities that allow people to spend time together in a way that inspires joy and wellness and builds connection. Our goal is to have an activity scheduled most days of the week in every part of Douglas County.

Gatekeeper Trainings

Gatekeeper Trainings are short (1.5 hours) trainings for those we’ve identified as important mental health gatekeepers. They are leaders of organized youth activities, supervisors and leaders in at-risk professions (construction, etc.), and other trusted persons who engage in regular conversation with the public (hair stylists, barbers, bartenders, etc.).  The training will include suicide prevention, mental health awareness, the importance of maintaining connection during a time of injury, and how to refer to resources.
