ANN MCKAY, CCH NAMED
CHC PRESIDENT EMERITUS
10+ Years of Dedicated Service
The CHC Board of Directors recently honored Ann McKay, CCH, with the title of President Emeritus for her many years of service to the CHC.
Ann dedicated more than 10 years of her life to the advancement of homeopathy through her work as President of the CHC. While President, Ann mainly focused on helping the CHC to achieve NCCA accreditation, which was granted to the CHC in July 2017.
We thank you, Ann, for your vision and tireless support of the homeopathic community!

EMERGENCY RESPONSE
One could almost categorize this year as one, enormous and continuous emergency. Although the world talks of settling into what is still an elusive new norm, starting and stopping between pause and clamber, has made everyone seek to find their nearest safety net. This month, Homeopathy in Action focuses on Emergency Response. Read how homeopathic practitioners are joining their forces with other comrades during emergency response efforts. We can be proud to learn how these practitioners not only serve to mitigate suffering and disaster of our fellow humankind through homeopathy, but continue to touch the environment and humanitarianism, homeopathically. May we all be inspired.

MARY T. JOHNSTON, CCH
"As a resident of the Bay Area for over 30 years, the yearly wildfires have deeply impacted me and those around me. I'm so grateful to the founders of IHAN for setting up an emergency response system for integrative practitioners to work alongside the Red Cross in the shelters that have arisen in the past 3 falls as the wildfires spread in northern California."
" It was gratifying to be able to be of service in a very collaborative group effort, everyone adjusting to the ever changing locations and situations that are part of any emergency situation. The work itself was very immediate with shelter residents and first responders coming to us with needs both acute and of a more long standing nature. Not only was it wonderful to be able to help with whatever came before us, but it was great to be in an environment where people openly welcomed what we had to offer, even if they were new to it."

MYRA NISSEN, CCH, RSHOM(NA)
“Like many homeopaths, I have a dream of offering my knowledge and skills to those who need it most. December 2018, I joined the Integrative Healers Action Network and worked along side other homeopaths, naturopaths, acupuncturists, massage therapists and other CAM practitioners at a Red Cross shelter in Chico, CA serving the evacuees of the Camp Fire. We made a difference in people’s lives and were will received by the doctors and nurses as well."

"My studies to earn my CCH were fundamental to my journey as a homeopath. Trinity Health Hub goes beyond, with content, courses and collegiality, enabling me to reach new heights as a homeopath."
