Our Mission at NHFC:
To promote access to all health care information, services, treatments and products that the people deem beneficial for their own health, healing, well-being and survival; and to promote the health of the people of this nation.
Consumers are in jeopardy of losing access to holistic health care practitioners. Medical doctors, dentists, homeopaths, naturopaths, and alternative practitioners across the country are being harassed, investigated, and detained for their actions!
Why? Because practitioners are presenting a health care option to consumers that is different from conventional medicine and are practicing a holistic approach that involves natural substances and techniques. Because of restrictive state practitioner laws, these individuals can lose their licenses or be prosecuted for practicing medicine without a license.
Access to dietary supplements, health care products and devices is at risk. Manufacturer’s are investigated by federal agencies such as FDA and FTC or local authorities for making health claims for products that are therapeutic in nature, even when the claims are truthful and not misleading. This censorship must stop.
Global guidelines and trade agreements are being passed that will impact our access to many products that we appreciate and depend on for maintaining our health.
National Health Freedom Coalition works to protect the right of all people to access their favorite health care practitioners and health care products, as well as to protect the right to access many other healing arts services that really resonate with people’s path to wellness!
- NHFC’s annual Conference for Health Freedom Leaders and Activists brings health freedom activists together from across the country for advocacy training and building strong health freedom alliances.
- NHFC hosted the first World Health Freedom Assembly on September 29, 2006, bringing together health freedom leaders from around the globe to meet in a formal Round, to discuss common health freedom concerns. The Assembly created and adopted an International Declaration of Health Freedom. It will continue to independently meet and contribute to global policy.
- NHFC attended Codex meeting in Geneva Switzerland, July 2004, and Rome, Italy, in July of 2005, and provides educational memorandums and power point presentations on International health freedom issues.
- NHFC responds daily to calls and emails from state, national, and international health freedom leaders, giving out educational materials and documents that can use at hearings, drafting new documents and helping with strategic planning.
- NHFC testifies at hearings and public policy meetings and provide public speaking presentations on health freedom.
- NHFC and NHFA manages an extensive website of health freedom information, teaching people basic principles of health freedom and alerting people to actions being taken. (See www.nationalhealthfreedom.org)
- NHFC works together with our sister organization, National Health Freedom Action (NHFA), a lobbying group providing assistance to state health freedom groups. NHFA assists them in passing proactive health freedom legislation that will ensure the rights of holistic healers to offer their services.
What can you do to help? You can join us in our efforts! You can become a health freedom activist and participate in our annual conference or in your own state health freedom movement.
You can help support the work of NHFC or NHFA with financial contributions that make it possible for us to hire staff and cover expenses needed as we work to preserve our health freedoms. For example, NHFC encourages individuals and groups to participate in the Clark Research Association matching grant by pledging monthly gifts to support health freedom work. You really can make a difference!
We cannot do this without doing it together. We need your help. Please join us by providing your financial support.
Each person’s health journey is unique. Each of us has the right to investigate every possible health choice when making decisions about our health. NHFC is a leading voice in mobilizing our country and the world to create solid solutions ensuring access to all of the healing arts. Together, we can make that happen. I thank you in advance for considering our request.
