Dandelion Healers Cohort
Healers are essential to collective liberation and fulfill a sacred social role in ancient cultures and indigenous traditions.
We empower our communities with culturally-competent, equity-minded healers trained in ancestral healing modalities because integrative care is for everyone. By removing structural barriers to training in and offering care, we respond to structural violence with a sustainable, preventative, by-us-for-us solution. The Dandelion Healers learn traditional movement medicine and support each other in offering low-barrier care to those impacted by systemic violence.

It is the sum total of the knowledge, skill, and practices based on the theories, beliefs, and experiences indigenous to different cultures, whether explicable or not, used in the maintenance of health as well as in the prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illness.” - World Health Organization
