Do you want to improve your health? The BeWell program can connect you with a primary care doctor and, with the support of a peer, help you learn about making healthy life choices. The service is free to individuals already receiving CSB services.

Through BeWell, you will be matched with a peer ‒ a trained health coach who has personal experience working toward a healthy lifestyle. Together, you will create your personalized wellness plan specially designed to help meet your health goals, such as:

    • Eating a healthy diet
    • Managing your weight
    • Kicking the smoking habit
    • Controlling diabetes and high blood pressure
    • Tackling other health challenges

To start now on a path to a healthier life, talk to your CSB case manager about joining the program.  If you are unsure where to go, please contact HopeLink directly and we will help get you connected.

For More Information

Brittani Getch

BeWell Supervisor

“I can't speak enough about the practical advice and the hope that BeWell provides for myself and those who are clients. No longer am I in the dark as to what I can do better to live a healthier lifestyle. I can see my enthusiasm and my fellow peers motivated to walk, drink more life- affirming water, and improve diets for better physical and emotional health. The weekly one-on-one meetings that the Be Well counselors provide are positive, therapeutic, uplifting and provide much needed support.”
