Health NOW engages in a variety of activities that promote the use of preventative health measures as a means of well-being, all with the understanding that health is comprised of physical, mental, and emotional aspects. From fun, people-centered activities to community health planning, Health NOW’s projects aim to transform our community’s view of health from one of sickness and disease to one based on prevention and wellness. To accomplish this goal, Health NOW assesses and responds to community needs, empowers individuals to make a difference, provides service opportunities that make a lasting impact, fosters a dynamic forum for discussion, and collaborates with a variety of other organizations. The goals of Health NOW reflect a recent trend in the healthcare field of promoting wellness and viewing health from multiple perspectives. Any IU student interested in the goals of Health NOW is invited to join, regardless of major!
