❤️What started as a trip for groceries 🛒 became a life-changing journey. ❤️
When Yasir first attended a Wellness on Wheels ("WOW") event, he wasn't expecting a health screening to reveal blood pressure readings as high as 160/100.🩺 Like many people, he felt fine and had no idea he was living with a serious health risk.
With the support of WOW, a grant, Yasir began making small but meaningful changes, incorporating more fresh fruits and vegetables into his meals, drinking more water, and exercising regularly. He also connected with a physician who helped identify an underlying genetic condition contributing to his hypertension. Today, Yasir's blood pressure is around 125/80, and he is managing his condition with fewer medications than before.
But his story is about more than improved numbers.
Living far from his family while working hard to support them, Yasir often felt alone. Through WOW, he found encouragement, compassion, and a community that cared about his health, his stress, and his future. "For the first time in a long time, I felt like I wasn't doing life alone. I felt seen. I felt supported. I felt like I had family here."
Stories like Yasir's remind us that improving health starts with meeting people where they are and providing support that nourishes both body and spirit.
Thank you to HIM Food Bank, Central Storehouse, and everyone involved in WOW for helping create healthier, more hopeful futures for our neighbors.
✨Everyone's health matters. Small changes can make a big difference. If it's been a while since you've checked your blood pressure or connected with preventive health resources, let Yasir's story be your reminder to take that first step.✨

🌟 Building Financial Wellness, Strengthening Communities 🌟
💡 A conversation about budgeting today can help create a more stable tomorrow.
Many families face financial challenges that can affect health, well-being, and future opportunities. Access to practical financial education can help individuals feel more confident and prepared for life's decisions.
🤝 Through a grant, Project Access Tarrant County and Pathfinders joined forces to bring financial literacy education to participants in the Salud en Tus Manos classes as part of the MATRIX program. Together, they created opportunities for residents to learn, connect with resources, and build skills that support long-term financial stability.
📚 As a result, participants gained knowledge and tools to help strengthen their financial well-being and future goals. Four financial literacy sessions provided practical strategies that participants can continue to use beyond the program.
❤️ Investing in financial well-being is one way communities can help improve overall health and quality of life.

🌟 Empowering Seniors Expo: Education, Connection and Community 🌟

The Empowering Seniors Expo brought together seniors, caregivers and community partners for a day focused on health, wellness and aging well.

Texas Health team members from Trauma Services, Emergency Services, Stroke Services, the Breast Center, Heart & Vascular, Physical Therapy and several other departments were on hand to share valuable health information, screenings and resources. Attendees also explored MARGE, MILTON and MILO, our larger-than-life inflatable educational exhibits that make learning about the digestive system, lungs and heart both fun and memorable.

The event was made possible with the help of more than 30 Texas Health Community Time Off (CTO) volunteers, who welcomed guests and helped ensure a great experience throughout the day.

A special thank you to Texas Health Burleson and Texas Health Willow Park for sponsoring transportation, making it easier for seniors to attend and benefit from the event's valuable resources and educational opportunities.

Together, we're helping empower older adults with the knowledge, support and connections they need to live healthier, more independent lives. ❤️

Texas Health shares what women should know about menopause and hormone replacement therapy, including common symptoms, treatment options and when to talk with your doctor.

For years, many women heard a simple message about hormone replacement therapy (HRT): avoid it. That message was passed down from mothers, grandmothers and even some doctors. Today, the guidance looks very different, and a lot of women are left wondering what is actually true.

Read their story in Fort Worth magazine:

Last year, Christal Miller and Laura Rasor were diagnosed with aggressive forms of cancer nearly back-to-back — but through their battles, they also became stronger individuals and closer friends.
