The Institute for Spirituality and Health is a compassionate and enduring organization housed within the Texas Medical Center with seven decades of history. Established in 1955 and recognized nationally and internationally, the Institute is an independent, interfaith charitable organization with a mission to enhance community and individual well-being. The Institute advances this mission through its Four Centers of Excellence: the Rabbi Samuel E. Karff Center for Healthcare Professionals, the Center for Body, Spirit, and Mind, the Center for End of Life and Aging, and the Center for Faith and Public Health. Each center delivers programs and services focused on educating and serving at the intersection of spirituality and health. Guided by meaningful partnerships and impactful initiatives, the Institute strives to foster a deeper understanding of this important connection. 

The Institute envisions a world where medical professionals consider the whole patient; self-care encompasses the entirety of the body, spirit, and mind; the aging and dying are cared for with dignity; and healthcare and support resources are accessible to all communities.

Seven decades. Four Centers of Excellence. One mission — enhancing well-being by integrating spirituality and health.
