mspWellness

mspWellness is the result of a partnership between the Minneapolis Regional Chamber (MRC) and the Minneapolis Health Department (MHD). MRC and MHD are working together to assist business members in creating healthier work environments.

​

We support small to medium-sized businesses with individualized resources and technical assistance through a cohort model (link out to why participate). Additionally, we provide programming and opportunities for large businesses to connect and learn with each other about new wellness initiatives.

​

Our goal is to equip employers in Minneapolis with tools to help their employees live well and cultivate a culture of health at their workplaces. Through our partnership, we meet businesses where they are at whether or not they currently have workplace wellness initiatives or are starting new.

Partnership

This partnership is made possible by the Minnesota Department of Health’s Statewide Health Improvement Partnership (SHIP), funding that serves as a powerful catalyst for creating healthier communities. Through SHIP, the Minneapolis Health Department partners with schools, neighborhoods, worksites, and clinics to make sustainable community driven changes that help everyone eat healthy, be active, and live tobacco free.
