What is Master Wellness Volunteer?

The object of this program is to train individuals who are interested in health and wellness with current research-based information. Volunteers assist the Family and Consumer Sciences program at their  local county Extension office. The program is designed for individuals with at least a high school degree or equivalent, with a true interest in health and wellness, and would enjoy volunteering and sharing research-based information with others.

 

The training focuses on nutrition, dietary guidelines, food safety, healthy lifestyle choices, physical activity, stress management, mindfulness and additional wellness subjects.

 

Upon becoming a Master Wellness Volunteer and completing the training, volunteers are encouraged to assist with or lead educational wellness activities.
