Through a variety of events and resources, we help everyone in our community access quality health care, bond with their neighbors, and embrace a life of wellness.

You were meant to enjoy a healthy body, a robust mind, and a joyful spirit. So whether you’ve been struggling with health-care expenses, need a shoulder to lean on, or want to commit to a healthier lifestyle, we’re here to help. At our Killeen and Rollins Brook locations, you’ll find a variety of community education programs, events, and community health screenings open to everyone in our area. Our community members can also access free health education, special clinical and non-clinical programs, support groups, and spiritual resources, all with financial assistance, whenever needed.
