NIH Well-being Ambassadors

History

Founded in 2019 as the long-standing NIH Health & Wellness Council was being re-organized, the NIH Well-Being Ambassadors are made up of representatives from each of the 28 Institutes and Centers (ICs) at NIH.

Mission

The mission of the Well-Being Ambassadors is to work directly with key well-being partners at NIH, support the promotion and engagement of the NIH Community in wellness-related activities, and to advance the concept of well-being within the associated IC's supporting wellness-based initiatives.

Partners

NIH Well-Being Ambassadors partner with several groups across NIH. Examples of NIH community partners include: the NIH Health and Wellness Council, the NIH Child Care Board, Work Life at NIH Program and the Aging and Adult Dependent Care Committee.
