This upcoming spring season is one of renewal, and as an affiliate of The BACCHUS Network, you have opportunities to engage your peer education organization in this rejuvenation.
    The BACCHUS Network exists to provide resources for peer educators to start and re-energize  activities on hundreds of campuses.
    Each spring, The BACCHUS Network hosts twelve area conferences across the country with hundreds in attendance.  Through networking with other peer educators and health professionals, presenting information from your campus experience, and hearing speakers, affiliates have a chance to celebrate their successes as well as strengthen their visions.
    Meeting with other peer educators is only one opportunity offered by BACCHUS this spring. Two campus campaigns are now available, free of charge, to all affiliated campus programs. The first-ever national Promoting Mental Health Campaign jumpstarts an entirely new era of wellness promotion, and The Sexual Responsibility Week materials reflect our continuing tradition of sexual health promotion. Each campaign contains not only samples of promotional items for your campaign, but also a booklet of information and ideas that can be tailored to individual campus and peer group situations.
    BACCHUS recognizes that your campus is unique, which is why these resources are only the beginning. Take these ideas, and in the spirit of spring, make them grow. In turn, tell us about your peer education program with your charter renewal. This form is your opportunity to express what resources your campus uses, would like to receive, and how you've improved on our designs.
    The Student Advisory Committee and Student Trustees extend their best wishes for your success this spring. Indeed, the Student Advisory Committee is simply another resource for your peer education progress, so connect with your SAC representative to find out more regarding what BACCHUS can do for you.

 Sincerely,

Tara Daniel and Chance Dorland
