Building community health and connection

This event and the wellness center are organized by the Health, Housing, and Community Services’ Public Health Division. Berkeley Public Health helps community members find and access services to help prevent illness, such as low-cost health and dental check-ups, nutrition assistance, lead poisoning prevention, quit smoking classes, and more. Healthcare providers can find ways to collaborate and communicate with Berkeley Public Health.

The West Berkeley Family Wellness Center offers a welcoming space for people of all backgrounds to connect and care for their health. This helps meet a key need identified by our community through the Berkeley Wellness Blueprint Project.

Come out to the West Berkeley Family Wellness Center for our June 27 Grand Reopening or weekdays 9 am to 5 pm. Connect with health services and your community.
