Healthy Campus Agent
Healthy Campus Agents are volunteer faculty and staff who support the mission of the Healthy Campus Initiative by promoting and encouraging peers, co-workers, and friends to participate in campus-sponsored health and wellness programs.
What being an agent is all about!
Healthy Campus Agents play a crucial role in promoting and enhancing campus health and wellness by sharing emails and fliers about upcoming activities, recruiting colleagues, coworkers, and friends to participate, and influencing a culture of health within their departments or groups. They implement initiatives such as providing healthy food and drinks for meetings, creating bulletin boards focused on wellness, hosting walking meetings or groups, and encouraging stretch breaks. By being positive role models and engaging in health and wellness programs, they help generate excitement and foster a vibrant culture of wellness on campus. Additionally, Healthy Campus Agents are responsible for identifying new ideas and programs to improve the campus environment, attending annual trainings, participating in monthly in-services, and providing feedback and evaluations on various initiatives. They stay informed about the latest health and wellness happenings and actively contribute to cultivating a supportive and health-conscious campus community.
