community wellness

Shared public thriving

Community wellness is the overall health and vitality of a group of people sharing a location, identity, or purpose.

It encompasses physical health, mental well-being, social connection, and access to resources like healthcare, safe housing, and green spaces.

Programs promoting community wellness often address systemic factors—poverty, pollution, food deserts—rather than individual behavior alone: The city launched a community wellness initiative focused on walkability and fresh food access.
