MyHealth at the Y is a personalized health and wellness coaching program that combines Pro-Change’s MyHealth program, our LifeStyle Management Suite of behavior change programs, with consultation and support from trained Y staff called Navigators. The Y staff participated in Pro-Change’s online e-Learning course on the Transtheoretical Model and participated in trainings provided by Dr. Mauriello. The Y professionals guide members through a review of their Health Risk Intervention Report and assist with setting behavior change goals. They refer members to the behavior change programs included in MyHealth and provide members with additional support as needed. MyHealth at the Y is being offered at all 7 branches of the Greater Providence Association.

Co-hosts of the Rhode Show, Will Gilbert, Michaela Johnson and Meaghan Mooney, completed the Health Risk Intervention and their consultation with a Y Navigator will be aired at a future date on the Rhode Show.
