ORGANIZATION: The Center for Mind-Body Medicine

  • 10 people are interested

The Center for Mind-Body Medicine (CMBM) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to help communities around the world heal from population-wide trauma. Whether impacted by war and other forms of violence, climate-related disaster, public health crises, poverty and racism, or other conditions and circumstances that can affect population-wide mental health, CMBM partners with community leaders to deploy a trauma relief model that combines evidence-based methodologies for self-care with the wisdom and cultural values of that community. CMBM has trained more than 7,000 individuals thus far in mind-body healing techniques throughout the world.

We are in need of a volunteer who can help our development manager with gathering and organizing impact data (including collecting testimonials), maintaining and ensuring accuracy of donor records, drafting donor communications, preparing research profiles on prospective donors, and creating opportunities for donor recognition.

This opportunity works best for a person who is organized, a quick learner, and has strong writing and research skills!

Mission Statement

The Center for Mind-Body Medicine (CMBM) is a non-profit, 501 (c3) organization working to create a more effective, comprehensive and compassionate model of healthcare and health education. The Center's model combines the precision of modern science with the wisdom of the world's healing traditions, to help health professionals heal themselves, their patients and clients, and their communities. We believe that all people have the capacity to understand, hep and heal themselves. When we share this process of healing with others, we serve our highest purpose and facilitate the most life-enhancing and enduring changes.

Description

The Center for Mind-Body Medicine (CMBM) started with a vision to create "a healing community and a community of healers." Since then, CMBM has nearly doubled in size with 20+ employees and 150+ international faculty members to serve tens of thousands of children and adults as we meet an increasing demand for trauma healing and resilience building throughout the world.

For decades, we have shared our comprehensive program of self-care, mutual support, and community building with clinicians and educators, first responders, clergy, and many other community leaders. This has transformed whole communities that have been devastated by war and conflict, climate-related disasters, mass shootings, poverty, chronic illness, and historical trauma. We are honored to have local and national leaders extend their trust to us- in major U.S. hospital and school systems, on Indian reservations, in communities reeling from hurricanes, wildfires, and the opioid epidemic, and in countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa that are in the midst of or recovering from wars. And we feel deeply appreciative that in the midst of conflict, people who mistrust and fear one another come together to learn from us, begin to appreciate their common humanity, and work together for the common good.
