PHW Certification is now the PHW Collaborative. As our name states, we want to partner with faith communities as they seek to live more healthy, whole, abundant lives. We have proudly done this for years through the PHW Certification program and the congregations that have participated have done and are doing amazing work. Our focus is now shifting. We also want to facilitate connections and relationships between our congregations to share wisdom, provide support, and build a community around health and wholeness. Instead of only rewarding more activities, we want to recognize depth and sustainability, and the good work that congregations of all sizes are doing not only to promote health, but to live it out in their communities. Will you join us?
