Health & Wellness
Empowering veterans through holistic well-being initiatives.
The UWVC provides our veterans with initiatives that foster positive physical, mental, and emotional health while supporting professional development and engagement with other veterans and the broader community.
We integrate many of our health and wellness activities with our Legacy and Education efforts by connecting veterans participating in our therapeutic programs to military and veteran history and highlighting the positive contributions of veterans to our society.
Our Health & Wellness program consists of weekly activities for at-risk veterans and community-wide events.
