Dance into Healthiness

Mental Health, Sobriety/Drug-free living, and Physical Health go hand-in-hand so we kicked off 2024 with this event to make health and wellness a priority for our staff and students. Chicago Job Corps H.E.A.L.S (Healthy Eating and Active Lifestyles), T.E.A.P (Training Employee Assistance Program re: Substance Use Support), and C.M.H.C. (Center Mental Health Consultant) collaborated to bring ‘Dance Into Healthiness’ to the campus on Monday, January 22, 2024. Staff and Students joined together for line dancing and healthy snacks, in the REC. Staff, including Office of CSIM (Center Standards Incentive Manager), Career Counselors and REC Staff supported the event with their upbeat energy, event set-up/clean-up and speaker/projector technology to blast the YouTube instructional videos and music for all to follow along. It was a good time! Students have already requested a round-two so get your dancing shoes ready and stay tuned!!
