The philosophy of The Wright House Wellness Center is to help people living with or at-risk for chronic illnesses make healthier life-style choices, employ complementary/holistic health therapies to delay illness, and contribute back to the community.


We provide no- to low-cost support, education and resources for persons living with HIV and hepatitis C. Most of the services provided by The Wright House are free to our clients. Other services are offered on a sliding fee scale based on income, or are offered at a reduced flat fee.


The Wright House is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization funded by a combination of private and public sources and receives monetary and in-kind support from a variety of individuals and organizations. Dedicated volunteers and practitioners donate their time and talents to ensure that programs and services are available to clients of the center.


The Wright House provides services without regard to race, color, national origin, sex, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, and infection with HIV or AIDS, political beliefs or status as a veteran.
