will have the opportunity to learn more about

healthier. In our final session we will use what
we've learned about ourselves and create personal health and wellness goals. We will choose our three most important goals and make a plan on how to achieve these goals. Everyone will be asked to think about: What needs to happen first? What supports do I need? What kind of environment will help me be successful? When we finish, each person will have a written plan for
their three goals.
