“In the spirit of helping Nebraska become the healthiest state in the nation, the College of Public Health Wellness Council has combined efforts with the UNMC Wellness Council this year to prepare the fifth Annual Wellness Fair on campus,” said Denise Britigan, Ph.D., assistant professor of health promotion, social and behavioral health in the UNMC College of Public health.

“We believe that continuing to provide health information resources for our faculty, staff, and students to be healthy is a good investment and a very good place to start.”
