Peer Educators
The ESU Peer Educators are a diverse group of student leaders who are trained to provide educational programs and outreach on responsible student decision-making.
Topics include wellness, prevention, and safety including alcohol, drugs, sexual health and violence. Peer Education provides a way for students to talk to other students about lifestyle choices with the goal of harm reduction, which reduces negative consequences of health behaviors.
All Peer Educators receive nationally-recognized training as Certified Peer Educators.
Student Opportunities
Any students who are interested in interning or wanting to complete hours for their practicum or internship are welcome to join our Wellness Education & Prevention team!
Each intern or practicum experience is tailored to fit the student’s learning objectives and to build upon desired skills. Students can gain skills in program planning, program implementation, public speaking, program evaluation, data analysis, assessment, grant writing, administrative work, and other experiences related to health, wellness, and safety within the campus and community.
If you are interested in an internship or practicum opportunity, email the Coordinator of Wellness Education & Prevention, Kayla Simon, for more information.
