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.</span><span
