Health and Wellness

Health & Wellness Program

Healing begins when the body, mind, and spirit work together.

At The Midnight Mission, Health & Wellness is part of our Healthy Living continuum—helping participants reclaim strength, dignity, and confidence at no cost. For many, it’s the first step toward sustained recovery and self- sufficiency.

Our Purpose

Good health is a foundation for independence. On Skid Row, untreated physical and mental health needs can block recovery and employment. Health & Wellness bridges that gap with accessible, integrated services that restore stability and empower transformation.

All services are free for program participants.

What We Offer

  • Primary Healthcare – Regular screenings, referrals, and preventive care.
  • Mind-Body Wellness Yoga, meditation, tai chi, and stress-reduction classes.
  • Movement & Fitness – Team sports and structured exercise to rebuild stamina and confidence.
  • Midnight Runners – Twice-weekly community runs with the Skid Row Running Club.
  • Health Coaching – Practical support for nutrition, goal-setting, and sustainable habits.

Why It Matters

21,343 VISITS. ONE MISSION: HEALING THROUGH COMMUNITY.
Wellness restores more than health — it restores hope.

Each yoga class, medical check-up, and morning run helps someone rediscover their potential. Donor and foundation support ensure that every person in our care has the chance to heal fully — physically, mentally, and spiritually.

You Make This Possible

Every success story is rooted in community. Whether you give, volunteer, or partner with us, you’re helping people do more than complete a workout—you’re helping them build confidence, discover purpose, and take healthy steps toward an independent future.
