When most of us think of family, we think of people in our immediate household, or people related to us by blood or by marriage.  However, many of us spend a large part of our week with others who may not fit the traditional definition of family.  We may have a family that includes roommates, teammates, friends, significant others, co-workers or classmates. 

Consider the unique influence each of our environments has on our everyday decisions regarding health and wellness.  Take ownership, set the example and your healthy choices will create a ripple effect that touches your whole family. 

 "Be the change you wish to see in the world." - Mahatma Gandhi
