Heal Well is a focus team of Live Well Kingston that brings together people working as health providers in Kingston to improve access to health facilities, increase knowledge of opportunities, develop healthy options, break down silos, and support needs assessment.
Our partners include social workers, health practitioners, doctors, non-profit and for-profit organizations, medical staff, yoga instructors, healers, government staff, and residents interested in health issues.
Our Vision
We envision an environment where all community members have access to healthy options to prevent disease and everyone can easily access affordable health care.

To promote complete physical, mental and social well-being in the City of Kingston by:
- Directing and supporting changes in policies, systems and environments,
- Providing tools to patients and to healthcare and human services providers to treat and prevent lifestyle-related chronic diseases, and
