The Northeast Expansion Project The Youth and Family Wellness Center
LEARN MORE
Purpose
The Harris Center is expanding! The Youth and Family Wellness Center will be our newest location serving District 141, which contains Northeast Houston and Humble. The Youth and Family Wellness Center will be a new concept for The Harris Center and will provide community members with comprehensive, holistic care with an expanded array of services. The goal of this expansion is to transform the lives of the community by improving clinical outcomes, health literacy, and access to resources. Thanks to $10 million in ARPA funding from District 141, the Youth and Family Wellness Center will be able to provide residents with everything from integrative primary care services to inclusive yoga classes while serving a wide range of ages and abilities.
The Harris Center, in collaboration with The Hackett Center and the People United Summit, is working to bring vital information to the Northeast Houston community about the expansion of mental health services. This joint effort focuses on providing resources and support to youth and residents aged 55 and older. By increasing awareness of available mental health services, this partnership aims to ensure that these populations have access to the care they need, fostering overall well-being and community engagement.
