The National Football League last week announced a new wellness program for current and former players, offering resources and advice for physical and mental health, family safety and lifestyle. Dr. David Satcher, a Morehouse College alum, Director of the Satcher Health Leadership Institute at the Morehouse School of Medicine and former US Surgeon General, will serve as a mental health adviser to the NFL Total Wellness program.

According to a release from the NFL, the program will “help empower players to make positive health decisions; promote support-seeking behaviors in connection with behavioral and mental health issues; and provide health and safety education for players and all members of their support network, including spouses, parents, and children.”
