The Wellness Spot, 1992 - 2018
Scope and Contents
This series contains records created by the Wellness Spot Health Promotion Program, formerly known as Well-Woman, from its establishment in 1992-1993 through 2018.
Each academic year, the Wellness Spot peer educators and staff assembled binders of documents that they used to manage their office operations and develop their programming. These binders generally include the following types of records, however the order and extent of each type varied each academic year: peer educator rosters, schedules, and contact information; meeting agendas and minutes; secondary sources and lesson plans used by peer educators to develop educational programming and special projects; attendance at programs, workshops, and lectures presented by the Wellness Spot; newsletters and publications; event flyers; and other miscellaneous notes.
This series also includes copies of manuals that were used to train peer educators on their roles and responsibilities. These training manuals were sometimes duplicated in full or in part within the annual binders.
This series also includes five notebooks which peer educators used to document how many students visited the Wellness Spot office and what kinds of conversations or activities they participated in.
This series also includes master copies of informational handouts that the Wellness Spot used for their programming and workshops. Some of these informational handouts were duplicated within the annual binders and training manuals.
Finally, this series includes posters and flyers used to advertise the Wellness Spot's services as well as programs, workshops, and special events that they hosted.

Arrangement
The annual binders kept by the Wellness Spot peer educators and staff were disbound and their contents divided into folders prior to their arrival to the Barnard Archives. There are dividers still present within each folder that indicate how documents were arranged in the binder they came from. The folders containing the contents of these annual binders are labeled "Well Woman History/Histories" and are arranged chronologically by academic year in boxes 2 through 4.
Peer educator manuals are arranged chronologically by year after the "Well Woman History" annual binders in box 4.
Master copies of informational handouts are arranged alphabetically by subject after the peer educator manuals in box 4.
Finally, one folder of event flyers created in 2017-2018 that were not contained in a Well Woman History binder are arranged after the master copies of handouts in box 4.
An oversize portfolio of posters advertising the Well-Woman program is arranged separately in box 5.
