Invitation to Local Employers
Ready to transform your workplace into a healthy environment? The Partnership for Better Health is inviting up to 20 employers to participate in our Wellness@Work (W@W) initiative.
Matching grant awards of up to $1,000 are available to support local employers that join with us to launch simple activities within their workplaces, helping employees become more productive and live longer.
Our W@W initiative introduces partners to no-cost and low-cost strategies that promote employee nutrition, physical activity and tobacco cessation.
