Wellness Initiative

You, Your Club and the FJMC Wellness Program

Introduction

FJMC Past President Bob Braitman has challenged the men of our community to commit to improving their health. The initial stage of this effort will focus on weight, nutrition and exercise.

Goals

To increase awareness of health and wellness issues by the men of our communities
To encourage Men’s Clubs to adopt wellness programming as an integral part of their mission
To add visibility and vitality to Men’s Club programming on a local level
To create another “portal of entry” for men otherwise not involved to play an active role in their Men’s Club
