“PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: The Integrative Touch Healing Center addressies health disparities by creating an in-person healthcare center that removes barriers and increases access to high quality care and integrative medicine. Integrative Touch (InTouch) has a long history of providing transformative treatments to kids, families, caregivers, and others in search of healing. Weve provided such care through our healing retreats, virtually through our telehealth programs, and in hospital and clinical settings through community partners such as Banner Hospital. Now, all InTouch programming is under one roof, and is able to help more people than ever before. PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: InTouch provides treatments, services and classes at the Healing Center located in Tucson, Arizona. A variety of online classes, personalized treatments and workshops are open to people around the world. The Healing Center uses a Heal it Forward model where individuals who can afford to pay for their services offset free or low cost services for those in need. PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: InTouch continues to expand its programs even further, by adding Telehealth programs that reach children, caregivers, families, and healthcare providers internationally. This program has provided more than 5000 hours of service since the COVID Pandemic began and allowed us to reach adults & children in their homes and in the hospital when we were not able to be in person to protect their health and safety. The TeleFriend program is an opportunity for a child who has any type of health or medical needs to develop a friendship with a team of one adult and one young person. TeleFriend Teams meet over Zoom to talk, play games, interact, enjoy wellness activities, read stories and spend time together. PROGRAMS: Compassion Camps Adult & junior volunteers play key roles, gaining understanding & compassion for families with medical needs. At the Compassion Camps, kids of all abilities find a unique mix of therapeutic support & sheer fun. There are dozens of integrative healing therapies offered, including Acupressure, Healing Touch, Gentle Massage , Meditation, Yoga Therapy, Animal Therapy, Music, & Art Therapies.
