Nisa Wellness Center

Our Story

Two Black, first-generation women from City Heights, San Diego

Growing up in an area with limited resources, we saw firsthand how wellness is often treated as a luxury rather than a necessity. After years of working professionally with families, we realized that while support exists for children, the women holding everything together are often overlooked.

We founded Nisa Wellness Center to change that. We understand the reality of what women deal with, from the mental load of childcare to the lack of comfortable spaces. We are building a place where women can finally focus on their own health in a community that truly understands their journey.

Our Mission

"To create a safe and inclusive space where women and youth can prioritize their health and well-being while building a community that empowers and supports individuals."

Our Core Values

These principles guide everything we do at Nisa Wellness Center.
