Professional Development Fund
for Ancestral Healing Practitioners
This professional development fund provides critical financial support to ancestral healing practitioners and trainees in the Ancestral Medicine Practitioner Network. The intention is to help folks to have thriving, sustainable practices in alignment with their specific gifts and calling in the world.
In cases where usual scholarship options are not sufficient to make participation within reach, this scholarship fund may be used to assist applicants with the costs of training tuition.
In keeping with our core values (e.g., international, accessible, anti-supremacist) roughly a quarter of scholarship support will be dedicated for recipients who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ+) folks, those who serve other-than-English speaking populations, and, on occasion, any practitioners or trainees with acute financial need.
About Us
Ancestral Medicine is not a non-profit organization and as such we are not able to offer a tax deduction for donations. We do, however, commit with the ancestors and Earth as witness that all donations will be clearly accounted for and dedicated to the stated intentions and groups. See below for a record of monies raised and distributed in support of the Ancestral Medicine practitioner network.
Jun 2021 – Sep 2022
Raised and distributed $4,500 among BIPOC applicants to support participation in the 2022 cohort of Ancestral Healing Practitioner Training.

Raised and distributed $8,500 to support practitioners and trainees who are BIPOC, LGBTQ, or serving other-than-English speaking clients. These resources were especially helpful to some through the early months of the pandemic.

Raised and distributed $15,805 among fourteen BIPOC ancestral healing trainees in the 2020 cohort to support their participation and ongoing professional development.
