Our HWB Groups
What are HWB Chapters, Projects, and Clinics?
Our registered HWB Chapters, Clinics, and Projects coordinate and operate within the values, mission, and vision of HWB. Innovative health and wellness projects and grassroots actions happen globally each week.
Dedicated volunteers engage in Free People's Clinics, Wellness Days, Street Medic Camps, Herbal Education Days, Community Gardens, Community Herb Apothecaries, Medicinal Seed Saving and other important herbal health and wellness social justice volunteerism. We work together as a network to get more supplies, resources, and community initiatives into our own communities.
