El Paso, TX

Our newest Endeavors Wellness Center project in El Paso (currently under construction) is located in the zip code with the largest Veteran and active-duty population in the city. With proximity to the new VA hospital, this facility will bring together organization and community-wide service efforts.

About Us

The Endeavors Wellness Center offers a multitude of wellness services for veterans, active duty, first responders, their families, and the communities of San Antonio and El Paso (Coming Soon!).
Our holistic health approach seeks to address wellness from multiple angles—from physical to mental to spiritual to economic resources, this center will offer Veterans and their support network services that will help improve their quality of life.

The Endeavors Wellness Model

Through wellness, we empower.

The Endeavors Wellness Center delivers positive, supportive, and integrated care all in one location to focus on self-care and overall health that enhances daily choices for wellness.

Driven by the vision to restore and improve quality of life, our Endeavors Wellness Model represents Six Principles of Wellness.

Focusing on each of these aspects, we offer Veteran services that will help improve their quality of life, as well as the quality of life for active duty, first responders, their families, and the community.
