Future Initiatives

Primary Initiatives of HPCC

HPCC places high value on pursuing goals and opportunities aligned with our mission, vision, and values. To continue our forward movement, HPCC is engaged in initiatives based on building internal strength, outreach, and service to the community, and collaboration with financial and healthcare partners.

Strengthening the Program:

  • Raise awareness of HPCC’s program for cancer patients by reaching out to oncologists and the medical community to increase referrals

  • Enlarge the base of highly qualified Providers by recruiting past HT recipients, nurses, or healers with backgrounds in other healing modalities, to learn Healing Touch (HT) and become program volunteers

  • Supply ongoing training for Providers, helping them to reach higher levels of HT skills, while exposing them to current research and presentations that support mental health and self-care

  • Expand the monthly Healing Circle attendance for Providers and program alumni (another free service)

  • Establish additional HT treatment sites for easy access to HPCC programs

Bolstering Financial Foundations:

  • Develop a stable base of corporate and business sponsors

  • Increase grant opportunities – local, regional, national

Outreach and Collaborations:

  • Support health and well-being within our community through outreach initiatives in collaboration with healthcare institutions and aligned nonprofits

  • Outreach to the underserved and advocacy for their care and well-being

  • Partner with oncologists and cancer care teams to increase referrals

  • Participate in community healthcare events (Nurses Week, Cancer Survivor’s Day, or Stand Down for homeless veterans)

  • Offer presentations to local organizations and businesses

  • Increase the respect and acceptance by medical professionals and the community for the effectiveness and power of energy-based therapies

  • Host HT classes in locations that give high visibility to medical professionals
