Student health is closely connected to the student community. On campus, students influence and are influenced by other students. Student Health Advocates enter the campus community with a commitment to engage others in dialogue about the critical personal, social, and cultural, questions which affect their overall well-being. 

     Health Advocate training provides a learning context to dialogue about the challenges to student health and well-being on our campus. You will gain skills and knowledge about: 

1)     Issues related to good health

2)     Health within the larger cultural context

3)     Issues specific to student health at Rutgers-Camden

4)     Health promotion and intervention techniques

Training can be received on a volunteer basis, or as part of the school curriculum for course credit.  If you have questions about becoming a Student Health Advocate, call 856-225-6005, or e-mail rrusso@camden.rutgers.edu.
