Health Advocates promoting well-being and lifestyle changes
At Oberlin College, the Wellness Ambassadors are a dedicated group of students who are committed to promoting health and wellness across campus. The Wellness Ambassadors programme offers peer-to-peer support, workshops, and outreach to achieve their goals, which aim to empower students in eight dimensions of wellness: emotional, physical, social, occupational, intellectual, environmental, spiritual, and financial.
If you're interested in collaborating with the Wellness Ambassadors for a program, workshop, or event, the best approach is to contact Oberlin's Student Health and Wellbeing office. You can reach them by phone at 440-775-5638 or visit their location at the Science Center Vending area (119 Woodland St., Oberlin, OH).
When you reach out, it's helpful to clearly specify your request, including the nature of the collaboration, the proposed program or workshop details, preferred dates, and goals of the event. The Student Health and Wellbeing office can then connect you with the appropriate Wellness Ambassador or student group interested in wellness programming.
It's worth noting that if you have already scheduled with the Writing Center or the Speaking Center, you already have an account. To schedule a 1:1 meeting with a Wellness Ambassador, you need to create a free account. To collaborate with a Wellness Ambassador, one can complete the Collaboration Request Form.
The Wellness Ambassadors programme also collaborates with campus departments, student organisations, and faculty. By working together, you can contribute to creating a healthier and more vibrant campus community.
In summary, to collaborate with the Wellness Ambassadors at Oberlin College, contact the Student Health and Wellbeing office, clearly specify your request, and wait for them to connect you with the appropriate Wellness Ambassador or student group. This official route ensures your request reaches the right people who manage wellness outreach and student-led wellness programming on campus.
The Wellness Ambassadors at Oberlin College also focus on mental health, combining science and health-and-wellness to promote well-being in a holistic manner.
