The Healthy Eating
and Living for Midshipmen (HELM) Committee is a midshipman led
committee working in conjunction with the Midshipmen Development
Center to
encourage healthy eating and living habits among the Brigade. Its
mission is to promote and improve the overall health and wellness
of the Brigade of Midshipmen through ongoing outreach, education
and prevention efforts, especially with regard to disordered
eating and the prevention of eating disorders. To that end, the
HELM Committee helps to develop monthly programs to address the
interests of the Brigade with respect to healthy eating. The HELM
Committee chairperson acts as a midshipmen representative on the
USNA Eating Disorders Prevention Team and HELM Committee members
have the opportunity to work in conjunction with their Battalion’s
2/c Sergeant Majors to provide midshipmen input to King Hall. The
HELM Committee members are instrumental in planning outreach,
prevention and educational programs for midshipmen during National
Eating Disorders Awareness Week as well as throughout the year.
