we added a casino night to top off our sailing excursion.

WELLNESS FUNDS AVAILABLE
The Vermont Department of Health has recently released a request for proposals for a
funding opportunity to promote worksite
wellness at small workplaces. These Working
Toward Wellness grants will support the development of worksite wellness programs to
promote physical activity and nutrition initiatives for employees. Six grants in the amount
of $3,000 each are available this year. In addition to funding, worksites will be partnered
with local health department staff for ongoing
technical assistance and support. To be eligible, worksites must have fewer than 100 employers and must not have an existing wellness program. This year, we are funding
worksites in the following district areas: Barre,
Rutland, St. Albans, St. Johnsbury, Springfield,
and White River Junction. Please click here
for more information or contact
Ashwinee.Kulkarni@vermont.gov. The deadline for applications is July 15th, 2016.
