Testimonial
“I love participating in the Penn Healthy You program because it makes me feel cared for by Penn and helps me prioritize my health and wellness. The on-campus biometric screening is a perfect way to start the academic year each fall. I find it easy, convenient, and social! I use WebMD’s tracking to keep my steps, calories, and sleep on target, and the weekly group yoga to support my mental health and manage stress. Going for VIP status keeps me engaged in the program and pushes me beyond the milestones. The swag is a great perk - my family and I love showing our #pennpride and it connects me to other VIPs on campus! Thank you for this awesome benefit and community.”
