East Lake Health & Wellness, Inc. was born from a lifelong commitment to serving others.
For more than three decades, Marie and Adler Labossiere have dedicated their lives to caring for individuals, families, seniors, and vulnerable populations through healthcare, education, and community service. Throughout those years, they witnessed a common challenge: many chronic health conditions, such as diabetes and hypertension, can often be prevented or better managed through education, early intervention, and healthy lifestyle choices.
In addition to their work in healthcare, Marie and Adler Labossiere have long been committed to education, service, and community empowerment. Through the success of Betty's Homes & Health Services, Marie and Adler established The New Enlightenment Foundation, an initiative dedicated to expanding educational opportunities for underserved youth. Using personal resources, the foundation sponsored the education of 25 students in Haiti, helping them pursue studies in universities, nursing schools, vocational programs, and other professional training opportunities.
Today, many of these students have successfully completed their education and are contributing to their communities through meaningful careers and service. This experience reinforced a lifelong belief that education has the power to transform lives, strengthen families, and create lasting opportunities.
As healthcare professionals, they recognized that improving community health requires more than medical treatment. It requires education, support, access to resources, and meaningful connections within the community.
Inspired by this vision, East Lake Health & Wellness was established to help bridge the gap between healthcare and community wellness. The organization seeks to provide health education, wellness initiatives, screenings, community outreach, and programs that empower individuals to take an active role in their health and well-being.
The name “East Lake” represents our commitment to the community we serve and our belief that healthier communities are built through compassion, education, prevention, and service.
Today, East Lake Health & Wellness continues to grow through partnerships, volunteerism, and community engagement. Our goal is simple: to help individuals and families live healthier lives while fostering a culture of wellness, dignity, and hope.
