Since our inception, we have been accelerating change: advancing education and promoting research optimal health for women.  We believe in helping women be well, so they reduce their risk for disease as they age.  We believe it is time to abandon a "one size fits all" approach and reach women with individualized solutions for their own health – from a combination of nutrition and exercise to natural hormone balancing products.  

We conduct a range of programs and activities:

• A national coalition of women, health professionals, national organizations working cooperatively to advance education, clinical research, and services on optimal health and hormone balance for women. The coalition advocates for more education, funding for research, and to ensure women have access to products and services for their health; 
  
  
• A website that provides knowledge and solutions for women over forty on how to create balance, wellness and optimal health.  The website also offers: health care professionals tools and a full compendium of clinical research on hormone balancing solutions including the science on bioidentical hormones; and background information for the media;
  
  
• The Create Balance: Your Journey to Wellness Campaign is a national campaign to educate women about ways to create balance in their lives and raise funds from business and health partners to support education and promote research in women's health, hormone balance and wellness.
  
  The Campaign offers women "Balance Steps" – simple, sound ideas for creating health, wellness and balance - and interactive tools and information about services, products, events and resources in communities. Contact us about the Campaign
