Profile: Houston Wellness Association

The Houston Wellness Association (HWA) is a not-for-profit organization with a mission to advance the health and well-being of our community and the economic vitality of our wellness sector with the vision to transform Houston into a widely-modeled, innovative city of healthy living.

The HWA was established as an outgrowth of the Mayor's Wellness Council in December 2006 with the aim to maximize the strengths of the Houston economy and its entrepreneurial character to create a private sector wellness initiative that will help our city's healthcare crisis by providing preventative goods and services to all sectors of our community.

The HWA will Do Good by Doing Wellness, meaning that a thriving wellness industry will bring more attention, interest, choices and greater opportunity to improve health and wellness for all Houstonians.
