Herban Health is an East Palo Alto based nonprofit corporation offering holistic
health care to local residents. Holistic health care works to make a good health
through supporting the whole person: physical, mental and spiritual. We at Herban
Health have been providing holistic health care in the extended East Palo Alto
community since 2004, by working directly in community based organizations in
order to reach people in their own environments. Our goal is to help people with
limited resources help themselves to live in a more balanced and healthy way and
we work together to make a healthier community. Herban Health celebrates the
healing power of culture within and between our participants and our providers
who are majority People of Color.
Health is more than the absence of disease. It is being able to live in an
environment with opportunities to develop and thrive, with respect, equity and
social justice.
