Wellness center
Working toward a vision of a Healthier community
Many of our neighbors in south Pomona experience homelessness, hunger, and limited health care access. The median income in our area is $16,000 per year; poverty and unemployment limit many individual and family choices on health care and wellness.
In partnership with local major health care organizations and educational institutions, UMCP offers classes in Healthy Eating, Active Living (HEAL); Family Wellness Days; and community health fairs on the campus of our host partner, UrbanMission, a United Church of Christ/Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) congregation.
Students in nursing, pharmacy, optometry, osteopathic medicine, and other medi-cal/care disciplines get “real life” experiences of working with vulnerable populations at our Wellness Resource Center. Everyone benefits.
