This quote by Mildred Horton at the 1942 Texas Annual State Extension Conference expresses the importance and positive influence of religion and health—now supported with decades of scientific research. The WELL CHURCH INITIATIVE of Texas A&M AgriLife Extension's Family and Community Health Unit maintains this tradition and trusted relationship with faith communities, supporting their clergy and congregations with education and resources across the faith-placed to faith-based continuum.

While the WELL CHURCH INITIATIVE specializes in churches of various Christian traditions, we also welcome partnerships with other faith-based organizations, places of worship, non-profit organizations, healthcare, and statewide agencies who are seeking to positively impact the health and wellness of their communities across Texas.
