Project Overview

DREAM Collaborative was commissioned to complete a 7,700 sf interior fit-out for the Whittier Wellness & Fitness Club at the newly constructed Whittier Street Health Center (WSHC). The result is a world-class facility that cost half of the contractor’s original estimate, without sacrificing quality or aesthetics.

The mission of WSHC is to provide high quality, reliable, and accessible primary health care and support services for diverse populations, promoting wellness and eliminating health and social disparities.

The Wellness & Fitness Club supports an integrative medicine model which will increase the therapeutic modalities for the treatment of major medical and mental health issues found within this urban neighborhood’s patient population, including hypertension, diabetes, and depression.
