Whole Health Action Management

Mar 11, 2021

Prepare your peer consultants to improve the health of your clients and counter the high incidence of chronic physical health conditions — such as diabetes, heart disease and obesity — among people living with mental health and substance use challenges with the Whole Health Action Management (WHAM) training.

Our WHAM training is a peer-centered, strengths-based program developed to promote whole health self-management for those living with chronic physical and behavioral health challenges. Participants learn to identify strengths, develop weekly action plans and better identify and implement whole health practices to more effectively foster behavior change among complex clients.

Peer consultants/counselors
