From the Paper:

"The few initiatives made by the wellness program with some degree of resource support from the college administration have been successful over the short term. Over the long term, however, the absence of continuing resource support from the administration allowed the initiatives to die slow deaths.

The stage of readiness to support a workplace wellness program is low at the community college. Until the senior administration become aware of the organizational benefits of wellness programs and provide the resource and moral support required a wellness program to succeed, the existing wellness program at the community college will continue along its present path to nowhere."
