Welcome to Whole Health Outreach

Our objective is to respond to the rural crisis in health care/education LOCALLY, PREVENTATIVELY and PERSONALLY.

We:

• Train ourselves and others to respond to unmet needs that impact women, children, young families and the elderly;
• Network with existing groups and individuals in rural and urban areas to address points of neglect;
• Emphasize preventative health care/education through participation; and
• Offer service as an expression of ecumenical Christian ministry and community building.

WHOLE HEALTH OUTREACH (WHO) is an ecumenical group of trained staff and volunteers committed to preventative health care/education.

Presently, we serve a five county area is South Central Missouri: Iron, Reynolds, Carter, Shannon and Wayne counties.

We network with other groups and individuals in the communities to assist families experiencing loss of members, loss of jobs, homes, etc. by providing for their immediate needs.

We network with county services to assist families-in-crisis to be able to stay together as families.

We offer “Capacitar,” a program of natural therapies to help persons deal with stress.
