Research has shown that over 45 million Americans suffer from chronic pain and 70% of adolescents with chronic pain will have persistent pain in adulthood. Adolescence is a key period to alter the pathway to suffering from chronic pain and prevent long-term challenges. With your help, CHYP can provide the tools necessary to change the experience of pain through evidence-based creative healing experiences that promote restoration of the nervous system.

Here at CHYP,  we provide youth with chronic pain and their parents and caregivers a safe place to go where they can feel understood and empowered – eliminating barriers to traditional care like cost, healthcare insurance, location, and traveling. We have developed research-backed programs to help this vulnerable population and their families, and now we need your support to bring these valuable programs to youth everywhere.
