MME Wellness Reps are similar to the Class Reps model, however their focus is the overall wellbeing of a particular cohort and students. The goal of the Wellness Reps program is to help monitor and enhance the wellbeing of MME students in an organic, peer-supported manner. Wellness Reps would help increase the sense of wellbeing within our department by championing wellness events/initiatives, promoting wellness strategies, and building/reinforcing community within and amongst cohorts.
As a Wellness Rep you would help the ENGWellness Program (and the MME Wellness Coordinator – Sam Vandekerckhove) by keeping us informed with what is going on in your cohort, as well as helping us plan/run programs and initiatives to better support you and your peers. You would also be our ambassador, so that peers could come to you for support and direction to any necessary resources.
