Wholespire, Inc.

We provide communities with proven and sustainable approaches that lead to increased access to healthy choices for all people. Our approaches focus on: 1. Policies, Systems, and Environments 2. Connect, Convene, and Collaborate 3. Advocacy 4. Knowledge Sharing

Diabetes, heart disease, and other health issues can be prevented and managed when people have access to healthy choices. So, what is access to healthy choices? Ask yourself these questions:
1. Is there a farmers market with local produce close to where you live?
2. Is the track at the high school open for you to use?
3. Does your local park have a water fountain? Benches? Safe playground equipment?
4. Are the sidewalks in your neighborhood broken or need repair?
5. Can a person in a wheelchair safely get to their bus stop?

If you answered yes, you're one of the lucky ones. What if you answered no? Imagine what life would be like, what your health would be like. Everyone deserves to have these healthy choices readily available to them regardless of age, race or economic status. Help us help others live a life of healthy choices.

Testimonials

"Previously having to walk on the roads with the traffic, I wouldn't hear the cars until they were right up on me. So, my husband got concerned about my safety and wasn't comfortable with me walking by myself. The walking track is so beneficial for the people living here and especially for the seniors. A walking trail helps those of us with our health. You can come on out and walk." - Jeanette Austin, Promise Land community member and organizer
