A 100% virtual, 10-module journey that's really a workforce, network & opportunity play — built on a foundation of health literacy for self, family & community, and aimed at preparing student-athletes for the world after football. Run it in a season — or stretch it across the year.
This isn't only a health challenge. It's workforce, network & opportunity development for the athlete, a health-awareness nudge for the alumni, and a one-to-many engine that grows the whole Wildcat family — all on the same coin loop.
Health literacy is the foundation — but the goal is the next step: a network, a pathway, and the skills to thrive in the world after football.
Mentors earn on a concurrent path, with a health-awareness lane of their own: a quick, private screen to be aware and care for yourself and your family.
Take the HealthBridge Men screen →Athletes and mentors score extra points by recruiting friends & family onto their side of the Healthy Wildcat Connections team.
Complete the journey and you're an Ambassador — with real access across the Network.
"Wing-tapping" is the old vet tapping a young player on the shoulder — I've got you. Walk alongside an athlete through these modules at the level that fits your life.
One intro connection at Module 5 — a handshake, a story, a "here's my number." Lowest-lift, big impact.
Check in as needed through the journey — a call before a big test, a nudge at the pathway pick. On your terms.
Meet with an athlete — or a whole group — throughout the season, supporting their progress and inspiring them to connect, lift each other, and compete to win.
Athlete or alumni mentor — enroll and your progress saves to your Wildcat profile.

You finished all 10 modules — from health literacy to Ambassador. You've earned your Player Card and your pathway is set. Bear Down.
