Health Advisers
The Health Advisers are a group of student volunteers who are committed to promoting the health and wellness of their peers.
Overseen by the Health Educator, the Health Advisers support the goals of the Health Education Office: to prevent and address health issues among the student body throughout the year with pertinent health education information especially related but not limited to sexual health, drug safety, and general well-being. Health Advisers deliver peer-to-peer health education content, make themselves available to chat individually with their peers, and collaborate with campus partners.
Past popular programming includes the Community of Respect Skit during first-year orientation, first-year hall talks, Drug Education Week, Reading Day Destress Fair, and Coffee Chats at Nummit.
Would you like Health Advisers to present health information to your student organization? Does your student organization want to collaborate with Health Advisers on an upcoming event? If so, please contact Clara Hare-Grogg, Health Educator at clharegrogg@davidson.edu.
Become a Health Adviser
Applications for the new cohort of Health Advisers will be available during spring semester.
We encourage all students who are committed to promoting the health and wellness of their peers to apply, but emphasize that selection is competitive. Students interested in applying submit an online application and letters of reference to the Health Education Office. Selected applicants are invited to a group interview led by current Health Advisers where participants share their interest in the health of their peers, their ability to be collaborative and address diverse health concerns, and to share any relevant prior experience.
