Thanks for finding Nonprofit Wellness! If you're in/near DC and stressed out from making the world better, first, thank you. Secondly, while the initial round of applications has ended, we're in allowing in a few more (members of) teams of full-time DC/MD/VA staff who work in nonprofit advocacy, education, or service. If you are part of that kind of team, Read On.

Starting in September, stressed-out world-changers will try new wellness tools and evaluate them for six months. We're hoping to discern what kind of physical and mental "wellness" we really need more of, plus the best ways to deliver services, to build community, and for our organizations to have more impact in this crazy world.

The pilot costs $200 per person; participants will receive triple that amount in self-chosen wellness tools. They will also contribute to growing research about this field. Scholarships available. DC-area folks only. Team deadline: June 30, 2018.

Thanks for creating cultures of well-being at work,
The NonprofitWellness.org Team
