Help Your Group Have a Healthy New Year
If you work with a group or club that would be interested in fun and easy health spots for their monthly meetings, WVU Extension has materials to make that happen. While the Health Motivators program was originally designed for a CEOS audience, the 2012 version has been created for a broader audience.
It’s easy to use. Clubs choose a member to be their “Health Motivator.” WVU-ES provides materials for them to lead a 5- to 10-minute break at their meetings on a health topic. A monthly tips booklet is available for the club’s health motivator. Calendars are provided to each member for personal activity tracking. The program goal is to motivate participants to take daily action to live healthier lives.
The materials can be viewed online. And, if you’re an individual who just wants to get on track, take a look at the calendar and see if it might work for you.
