Health & Wellness
Good health is the foundation for independence, confidence, and quality of life. Holistic Health and Wellness services at Pursuit Center creates a foundation for personal growth by addressing the physical, emotional, and behavioral needs of each individual we serve. Through innovative partnerships and specialized programs, we've developed a comprehensive approach that ensures individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) receive the support they need to thrive.
Our Wellness Approach Includes:
Pursuit Center is proud to offer a diverse range of wellness programs through strategic collaborations with Baylor College of Medicine, Texas Children's Hospital, Believe Dental, Bloom Fitness, and UTHealth Houston. Each service is designed to provide accessible, specialized care tailored to the unique needs of our community.
Our dedicated nursing team ensures residents receive consistent medical oversight, medication management, and prompt attention to health concerns.
By integrating preventative care, specialized treatments, and lifestyle-focused programs, we help individuals build healthy habits, gain confidence, and take control of their well-being—empowering everyone to lead a healthier, more fulfilling life on their own terms.
Finding quality healthcare as an adult with IDD can be challenging. That's why we've partnered with Baylor College of Medicine to offer a specialized primary care clinic right on our campus. The Baylor Transition Medicine Clinic provides comprehensive services including routine checkups, chronic condition management, integrated behavioral health support, and specialist coordination—all in a calm, welcoming environment designed specifically for individuals with IDD. Our partnership ensures continuity of care while helping individuals and families navigate the adult healthcare system with confidence.
Proper dental care is essential for overall health, but individuals with IDD often struggle to find providers who understand their unique needs. Our partnership with Believe Dental ensures that every individual receives accessible, compassionate oral healthcare in a sensory-friendly environment. Their services include routine preventative care, sedation options for anxiety, and comprehensive restorative treatments. With specialized expertise in treating patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism, Believe Dental helps everyone maintain optimal oral health with dignity and comfort.
Pursuit Center offers comprehensive Behavioral Health services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as their families and caregivers. Our integrated approach combines professional Counseling and specialized Behavior Supports to address the full spectrum of mental health and behavioral needs.
Through our team of licensed professionals, we provide personalized services including one-on-one counseling, evidence-based behavioral therapy, family support programs, and convenient telehealth options. This holistic approach ensures that each person receives the right combination of support to address their unique challenges.
By prioritizing both mental health and behavioral interventions, we empower individuals to develop effective coping skills, build greater self-confidence, and overcome obstacles to independence. Our goal is to enhance quality of life through services that foster emotional wellbeing, improve interpersonal relationships, and create pathways to more fulfilling, independent living.
Physical wellness plays a key role in overall well-being, and through our partnership with Bloom Fitness, we provide adaptive exercise programs designed for individuals of all abilities. Participants enjoy accessible group fitness classes, virtual workout options through Bloom Live!, and a welcoming, non-competitive community environment. Their instructors create engaging activities that build strength, improve mobility, and promote confidence, helping each person establish healthy routines while experiencing the physical and social benefits of regular exercise. These fitness opportunities are integrated throughout our day programs, ensuring consistent access to physical activity as part of our comprehensive approach to wellness.
