Description: Established November 24, 2004, in California, and approved for 501(c)(3) status in February 2006, the Holistic Honu Wellness Center is a not-for-profit healing center dedicated to preserving and perpetuating the Native culture through education and healing. We serve, on average, 3,000 patients, 2,000 students, and 600 service animals per year. We have found the astronomical cost-of-living in the San Francisco Bay Area to be prohibitive and are now looking to relocate our organization to the Skagit Valley of Washington State where the cost-of-living is substantially less. Relocation will allow us to expand our services and provide the necessary elements for our educational programs to qualify for accreditation as a degree-granting postsecondary institution.
