The October 15 Governor's 2007 INShape Health Summit, Live Healthy, Work Healthy, is co-sponsored this year by Purdue University. The audience we would like to attract to the Summit are CEOs of businesses, industries, hospitals, clinics, superintendents of schools, leaders of faith-based groups, and other executives who have a primary say in the health options offered to their employees.


The Summit keynote speakers and workshops will focus on the economic benefits of a healthy workforce and the choices companies can provide their employees to help them develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Hot topics in worksite wellness have been selected to equip businesses for today's challenges, including strategies for the implementation of wellness programs, and methods for business to improve their bottom lines-how to reduce health care costs and utilize tax breaks.

Purdue Extension is encouraged to recruit a team of people from local business, industry, health care, schools, and faith-based organizations to participate in the Summit. Please contact Karen Richey, Marshall County Extension Director, at 935-8545 if you are interested in attending.
