Mission

The mission of Health Promotion Operations (HPO) is to promote tobacco-free living, nutritional fitness, physical fitness and healthy weight for the Nellis and Creech community.

We offer several programs and services focused on these target areas. By referral or upon individual request, members may be evaluated for the appropriate program best suited for them and their wellness needs.

The programs listed in this page are available to all active duty, beneficiaries and civilian employees.

Briefings

On request, HPO personnel are available to brief your squadron on a variety of health, fitness and nutrition topics.
