May is "Move It" Month
Mission
This newsletter will provide you with information on emotional, mental, physical and nutritional health. We will focus on how to help you be proactive about your health and well-being. The EWS Newsletter will also provide support & guidance resources that we hope will assist you in dealing with stressors and challenges.
Move It!
We are promoting May as "Move It" month to help inspire employees to get moving by working out, walking, jogging, as well as meditating in order to relieve some of the shelter in place stress we may be experiencing.
