Peer Health Educators
East Carolina University's peer health educators are a diverse group of students who are trained to teach fellow students about pertinent health issues in a positive, interactive and nonjudgmental manner. Topics range from alcohol and other drugs, smoking cessation, sexuality programming, nutrition/body image/eating disorders, stress management, and more.
Peer health educators can receive academic credit (HLTH 2500) as an elective to receive the training and participate in campus programming efforts or join the Healthy PIRATES student organization. Look for peer health educators creatively promoting health around campus!
