New  Family
Wellness Programs

PHC welcomes adults who are interested in leading healthier lives to participate in a new wellness program. Parents, caregivers, and select community members are invited to join us for a series of health chats, nutrition and exercise assessments led by wellness coaches. Participants will also be invited to receive health screenings and risk appraisal.

Family Wellness

Eating a healthy diet and regular exercise have been found to decrease the risk of developing chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure (hypertension), osteoporosis (thinning bones), heart disease, and depression. 

Community Health Fellows 
Wellness Fellows are coaches trained to conduct a wellness self-assessment and develop mutually agreed to nutrition and exercise plans designed to improve health. By creating healthy goals and receiving nutrition and exercise information, participants work to improve their lives, as well as the lives of their family members.

Family Membership to the Health and Fitness Club 
PHC offers participants a free yearlong family membership to the Health and Fitness Club* located in the Northwest Activities Center, parent and child cooking classes, and access to the community garden (including information on how to start a garden of your own).
