Wellness Benefits & Incentives
Connect & Grow: Our 2026 Well-being Program
WHAM and HealthPartners Living Well strive to help you foster genuine connections with one another while providing tools to thrive personally and professionally. To grow for the long term, you must care for your well-being in the short term. Engaging in activities that help us restore physically and emotionally is not a sign of withdrawal—it’s the foundation of our resilience.
There may be lots of reasons you want to care for your health and well-being in 2026. Why not use this year’s reward to help fund your growth or support your community.
