Healing Together

What Healing Together does

Healing Together is a US-registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization headquartered in Oakland, California, with regional entities in Nepal (Pepsicola, Kathmandu) and Uganda (Mbarara). Its mission is to prevent, disrupt, and heal generational cycles of trauma and violence through trauma-informed, healing-centered, and culturally/ancestrally rooted programming. The organization serves BIPOC communities, schools, educational institutions, community organizations, integrative health practitioners, and global community leaders across 28 countries.

The organization's core offerings are human-facilitated workshop programs and downloadable resources rather than a software platform. Flagship programs include Healing Cycles of Harm (multi-session somatic/mindfulness/expressive arts workshop), the Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT) co-developed with Stanford University's Center for Compassion and Altruism Research & Education, the 5NP (NADA Acudetox) acupuncture training, the BIPOC Healing & Support Circle, and Community Care Circles (free virtual sessions). Supporting resources include the Emotional First Aid Guide (available in 25+ languages), guided meditations, a Basic Tapping Guide, a White Supremacy Culture resource, and a Conflict & Our Ecosystem guide. Delivery occurs via in-person workshops, Zoom/Google Meet virtual sessions, and self-serve digital downloads, with reach amplified through a multilingual content library and a partner network spanning RooT, Circles International, Teachers 4 Social Justice, EDJA Foundation, Stupski Foundation, Stanford CCARE, and others.

The business model is donation-and-grant-funded, with select paid workshop offerings (e.g., 5NP acupuncture training at $100-$350 per 2-day training) and many free resources. Pricing is mixed: Community Care Circles are free, while institutional workshop requests are facilitated through a self-serve request form. Operating geographies include the US, Nepal, Uganda, Rwanda, Myanmar, Mexico, Haiti, Somalia, South Sudan, and additional countries across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Cumulative impact metrics include 16,000+ leaders trained, 1,800+ schools/organizations trained, and 500,000+ lives impacted. The organization received the Candid Platinum Transparency seal in 2025.
