The '''Whole Health Program''' (WHP) is an initiative by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) within the Department of Veterans Affairs, launched to transform healthcare delivery for Veterans across the United States. The program emphasizes a holistic approach, prioritizing what matters most to Veterans rather than solely addressing medical conditions, integrating conventional care with complementary and integrative health (CIH) practices such as mindfulness, yoga, and acupuncture. Initially rolled out in 2018 at 18 flagship facilities, it has since expanded to embed Whole Health principles into primary care, mental health services, and beyond, fostering self-care and skill-building to improve Veterans’ overall quality of life. | The '''Whole Health Program''' (WHP) is an initiative by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) within the Department of Veterans Affairs, launched to transform healthcare delivery for Veterans across the United States.
