Healthy Huskers will be Peer Educators working to support the mission of the University Health Center. HH’s are selected from the undergraduate student body at UNL and are comprised of students from varying academic majors, backgrounds, perspectives, and life experiences. HHs strive to make a difference in the lives of other students by educating them on many important wellness topics including alcohol, healthy eating, safer sex, sleep, stress, etc. HHs educate other students about health and social issues in order to increase awareness, encourage safer behaviors, make informed choices, and enhance the health and well being of their peers.

The time commitment required to be a HH is 3-6 hours per week. This includes: the academic class & homework, staff meetings, office hours, organizing and delivering programs and presentations, and ongoing training. HHs receive an hourly wage for work related requirements, not for attending class.
