Dear Healthy Citizens,

As 2023 comes to end, we'd like to take a moment to express our gratitude for each of you. It has been a privilege to work with you this year. It has been truly a team effort implementing a new Wellness Incentive Program. There are always bumps in the road, but you made it a success!

While the holidays are generally filled with the joy of being with family and friends, we understand that there may also be feelings of sadness during this time of year. We encourage you to celebrate and grieve in a manner that promotes your family’s health and wellbeing, and we urge you to observe the holidays in a way that will benefit your mental health. Start by giving yourself grace. Give yourself room to feel and act, as you need. For example, set boundaries on negative influences; connect and share with close family or friends, and do not be afraid to ask for help. As always, Citizens Energy Group has resources to support you. 

Additionally, we encourage you to think about your health goals for the upcoming year and how you can make those come to fruition. We look forward to supporting you in 2024 as you work toward improving your personal health and the health of the Citizens community. 

On behalf of your Wellness Coordinators, we wish you all a joyous and healthy holiday season!

Melissa Hehmann & Sara Flores
