Peer Education
Share the WEALTH (Wellness Educators Advocating Lifestyles Toward
Health) is a peer health education program to address the health
issues and concerns facing OSU students. The program is comprised of
trained peer educators who promote positive health behaviors,
increase awareness of campus and community resources, encourage the
use of critical thinking during decision making processes, and
create a support network for students.
Share the WEALTH peer educators develop and facilitate health
education and awareness presentations and programs. The topics
addressed include Alcohol Education, Nutrition, Sexual Health,
Sleep, and Stress Management.
Wellness State is another component of the peer health education
program specifically designed for our freshman students. Wellness
State integrates health education with technology in the classroom
setting. Presentations are "student friendly" and include the same
topics as the Share the WEALTH program, with the addition of Safety,
Body Image, and Finance. "Graduates" of the Share the WEALTH program
serve as facilitators for these programs.
