Small Steps to Health and Wealth™ Online Challenge Begins January 16


Just in time to rescue failed New Year’s resolutions to improve health and personal finances, the Cooperative Extension system is launching an online Small Steps to Health and Wealth™ (SSHW) Challenge called “Winter 2011 SSHW Challenge.”  This free six-week program, open to anyone who enrolls online, will be held from Sunday, January 16, through Saturday, February 26.  Prizes will be awarded for participants who report the highest point totals.  
To sign up for the SSHW Challenge, follow the “Challenges” link on the Small Steps to Health and Wealth™ Web site at http://njaes.rutgers.edu/sshw/.  Set up a user name and password and download a simple one-page user’s guide with instructions about how to proceed. Enroll in the Challenge titled “Winter 2011 SSHW Challenge.” It has been well documented that, when people monitor their behavior and measure their how they’re doing, they are often inspired to do better and achieve positive results.  Doing even one of the ten recommended daily practices is a great way to get started on the path to better health and improved financial security. 
“The Challenge is a great way to convert ambitious New Year’s resolutions, like losing weight and saving money, into daily action steps,” notes Dr. Barbara O’Neill, Extension Specialist in Financial Resource Management for Rutgers Cooperative Extension.
