Duck Nest Wellness Center Recruiting Volunteers:

Peer Wellness Advocates are students who are interested in helping promote wellness and general well-being on our campus. Being a Peer Wellness Advocate (PWA) involves being a resource for students by staffing the center for a two hour shift each week and being part of an outreach group that focuses on a specific topic, as well as the potential for special volunteer opportunities such as presenting to groups on different topics (ex. How to Support a Friend) or helping to lead cooking classes. Topics of focus this year include nutrition, mental wellbeing, sexual health, body positivity, and social health, but are likely to change each year. The weekly time commitment for this volunteer position is about 4 hours/week and it is a great way to gain experience, get more involved with health initiatives on campus, and learn about healthy equity and public health.



PWA applications are open from January 2-30. The link can be found on the Duck Nest website (https://health.uoregon.edu/ducknest) or at the following link: https://uoregon.campuslabs.com/engage/submitter/form/start/373031<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://uoregon.campuslabs.com/engage/submitter/form/start/373031__;!!C5qS4YX3!X8ynzhLtKfulQO6__kgWzu9goyrZ2tBzDwzfERpxz7SgqHaRoHyNe4DY1d39hSkthw$>. Each volunteer who is selected will sign up for a 3 credit, upper division course taught on Mondays from 4pm-6:50pm in the Spring (where they will learn about campus resources, peer health education, and a variety of health topics) and will start volunteering at the center the following Fall term.



If you have questions or would like more information please email peerhealth at uoregon.edu<mailto:peerhealth at uoregon.edu>.
