National Outreach and Development Manager
Start Date: September 2010

Description: Peer Health Exchange (PHE) is a national non-profit organization whose mission is to give teenagers the knowledge and skills they need to make healthy decisions. We do this by training college students to teach a comprehensive health curriculum in public high schools that lack health education.

In the 2010-2011 year, we will write our next strategic plan, building off of our success to date and charting the course to increase our impact dramatically in the years ahead.
