Westside Health Authority

Westside Health Authority serves the Austin neighborhood and the greater Westside of Chicago. WHA’s mission is to use the capacity of local residents to improve the health and well-being of the community. For WHA, health is defined broadly to include the social and physical environment which contributes to the mental, physical and spiritual well-being of a person. It also includes relationships with family, friends and neighbors, and the ability to find stable employment. Though focused on serving the West Side, WHA serves communities throughout Chicago.
