Founder's Story
In January 2020, none of us knew about COVID-19 or how it was going to affect us, let alone how close it would hit home. This unprecedented time, however, proved to be one that ignited love, empathy, passion, vision, and the birth of new beginnings for many.
The Stirring Spirit
As I watched the news daily, I felt something stir within me as I wanted to go back to help fight COVID-19 in my hometown, New York City. I felt guilty. Like a survivor’s remorse. I could not travel to NYC at the time but still wanted to do something for the Georgia healthcare workforce. Knowing how much I love direct patient care, and how involved I was when I worked in the clinical setting…
What We Do
Help for Healthcare Professionals, HHCP, is a nurse-owned nonprofit organization based in Georgia. We were established to provide support and services to the healthcare workers in our community who have devoted their lives to keep us safe and healthy.
2020 shifted the perspective of the community at large as everyone seemed to now understand the nature of the healthcare ecosystem. Nurses, doctors, paramedics, respiratory therapists, social workers, community health workers, and pharmacists; are only a few of the brave and heroic people making a difference in our lives and our community. While you stayed safe within your homes and away from the pandemic, healthcare workers went out daily to face the dangers of the COVID-19 virus, head-on.
Each year we aim to provide targeted programs and services in fulfillment of our three core pillars- awareness, education, and crisis relief. As we expand our Crossroads Education and Skills Training program, we ensure sustainability of the healthcare workforce. We do this by removing barriers that impede both aspiring and existing members of the healthcare ecosystems’ ability to obtain comprehensive training. Long-term, this creates healthier communities with better access to healthcare.
