WHO WE ARE

Houston Together is a community-based organization, with a focus on our motto, "Together, We are Strong." Our goal is to create a healthier social environment and improve balance to our communities' livelihood. Houston TSI is a 501C3 organization seeking to provide avenues which advance and maintain community health. We address issues regarding obesity, diabetes, and autism.

4 out of 10 people in America are struggling with obesity, and the rates of this epidemic are climbing, especially in Black-American communities. Our programs are here to help fight the epidemic as a lifestyle change, enjoyed by all.
With obesity, diabetes is likely to become a reality. Diabetes, known as "'the silent killer" also rampages through our communities.
Autism is a disorder of neural development characterized by impaired social interaction and communication. Many children are diagnosed with autism, yet there isn't much discussion on causes, signs, and how to support families impacted with this disorder. We are here to help Houston families.

Houston, TSI collaborates with a network of community leaders within the city to face these issues.

Ways We Help

The Focus of Our Efforts:

Three Core Components

On The Floor

HTSI will use dance classes to attract, motivate and inspire participants to engage in dancing to help bring them “out of the house” in a wholesome, enriching manner, consequently meeting and networking with 40+ like-minded adults; who recognized that dance can help them rise above boredom, stress, depression, and reduce high blood pressure. This activity achieves the results of fighting off obesity and diabetes, which is prevalent in this age group.

Bound to be better

Designed to aid selected high school seniors referred by family members or school counselors; provides participants with one on one mentor/tutor support and guide through their first undergraduate semester at no cost to them.

Taken for Granted

This program is where HTSI staff and volunteers meet with autistic youth and families in our community on Saturday mornings to participate in various activities i.e. bowling, baseball, dancing and health screening.
