The Mayor’s Wellness Challenge, sponsored by Wellness Connection and the Employee Wellness Advisory Council, is a 12-month program promoting wellness, physical fitness and health education through department and individual challenges.

The challenges include monthly health education seminars, quarterly recreation events, blood donations and Wellness Connection monthly events such as “Go Red” and the annual wellness fair.

To receive their preparticipation survey, employees should e-mail their name, department, and employee identification number to wconnection@cityofhouston.net. Once registered, they can collect points toward individual and department team prizes.

Public Works & Engineering is the reigning champion of the Mayor’s Wellness Challenge. Is your department next?
