We're here to help the people of Wisconsin live healthier lives. Lives enhanced by healthful nutrition, exercise, a positive mental attitude--and free from damage by smoking, illicit drug use, or too much drinking.
The Wisconsin Initiative to Promote Healthy Lifestyles (WIPHL) is partnering with clinics around the state to provide evidence-based, cost-efficient Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral-to-Treatment services to help patients make positive changes.
Whether you're a patient, a caregiver, an employer, a policymaker, or simply an engaged citizen, there's something in WIPHL for you.
We all have a stake in a healthier Wisconsin!
