What is the Peer Health Education Program?
Peer Health Educators (PHE) are students who teach their peers about physical and mental health by conducting presentations, discussions, small group workshops, and outreach activities. Under the guidance of the Health Educator, the PHEs will undergo training so that they can provide preventative education for the CSUDH student body.
