Health & Wellness (Bienestar)
Achieving true community bienestar and el buen vivir
Our Understanding
Through our health and wellness programs, we seek to achieve true community bienestar, allowing our community to experience true wellness and freedom. We strive to thrive, not just survive.
We acknowledge the social roots of most community challenges. Even non-social factors, like COVID-19, bring enormous social impacts due to institutional racism. Addressing health conditions means acknowledging our community's everyday experiences and the systemic issues they face. Our mission is dual: address immediate needs and foster leadership for enduring change.
Our Plan
Prevention & Wellness
At the heart of our mission lies a drive to address health inequities in our community. Through prevention, access, and intervention, we strive to empower every individual towards a healthier future.
Social Support & Community Care
The link between poverty and well-being extends beyond the physical, impacting our social and spiritual health. While we provide immediate solutions to pressing challenges, our vision is rooted in long-term aspirations, such as achieving food sovereignty and securing land for the community.
Nurturing the Young & Expectant
Our community predominantly consists of young adults. Ensuring they receive comprehensive health and support is vital, which has ripple effects on their families and the wider community.
