Restoring Hope and Health Through Wellness:
Rebuilding the Village

The Council's Wellness Institute represents a shift in how we view services, individuals, families and communities. Wellness is more than merely the absence of illness. Wellness embraces lifestyle issues that lead to longer, happier lives, full of promise and hope.

As a society, the effects of stress and anxiety from life's challenges are at epidemic proportions. We cannot continuously absorb the negative influences in our communities without them ultimately manifesting in the choices we make. Without a response, the external stresses will ultimately erode the very foundation we need for the strength to build strong families and communities.

Through the execution of our strategic plan, The Council will establish a state-of-the-art, multi-generation Wellness Institute with a primary focus on prevention for the long-term well-being of our communities.

"I am excited by The Council's vision for a Wellness Institute. With its holistic approach, this new facility encompasses all the elements of The Council's basic philosophy of prevention... It promises to be a model for communities nationwide..." Mrs. Rosalynn Carter, Former First Lady
