Safe Routes to Health - Corewell Health

The Safe Routes to Health AmeriCorps program (SRTH) at Michigan Fitness Foundation connects Michiganders to health, wellness, and physical activity resources in their communities. SRTH members at Beaumont Health serve the broader Southeastern Michigan region as Community Engagement Liaisons, focusing on chronic disease prevention and management through education and services that support healthy eating, active living, and maintaining a healthy weight as well as increased opportunities for physical activity. Each member is assigned a site supervisor who provides mentorship, supervision, and access to professional development opportunities at the host site. Members also participate in ongoing professional development, team-building, and at least two outside/group service activities with the SRTH statewide team. Members will receive training in a variety of areas to support service projects, gain valuable skills, and real-world experience. Members serve 450 hours over 5 months. Current service locations with Beaumont Health include: Trenton, Taylor, Royal Oak, Troy & Wayne. Some larger team meetings would take place at the Southfield office.
