NAP is a practitioner-led public initiative focused on protecting ethical care, restoring professional autonomy, and pushing back against predatory systems that harm both practitioners and patients.

It was formed out of necessity. With healing becoming an increasing focus of venture capital and the insatiable greed of the insurance industry, we need a way to fight back to save what we do from being twisted into something we don't recognize. The goal is to create a clear, organized response to profit-first forces that distort care, suppress fair reimbursement, and leave practitioners carrying the burden alone.

NAP is for practitioners, allied professionals, and community partners who want a practical, organized way to defend good care and sustainable practice.

NAP is organized as a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC). This allows us the freedom to put the mission first. We keep the mission centered on practitioner-led strategy, direct action, public education, and measurable wins that improve everyday practice.

Legally, to be considered a non-profit, the necessary organizational structure is far too vulnerable to attacks from well-established industries and venture capital's lawyers. As a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC), we are structured to be able to win the fight we're picking. This will be crucial to our success in the long-term. The trade-off is, of course, trust is harder to build. For that, we are committed to unparallelled transparency for our members who will always know what we're doing and why. In addition, we are committed to running the corporate side very much like a co-op.

We do things differently, from how we're organized, to how we allocate resources. NAP is technically a for-profit company, but that's where the similarities end. Because we're a for-public-benefit corporation, we don't ever have to be concerned with profit. We do want to provide those who work for us with a living wage, so everyone who works for NAP, including the CEO, will receive the same pay. It will be calculated based on a fixed % of revenue divided by the number of employees. Whether to hire another team member is therefore up to everyone. All other revenue will go toward growing our community, serving members, and advocacy. NAP is not here to make money for shareholders, but to make life better for as many people as possible. We do that by serving our member practitioners by aggressively and steadfastly fighting on their behalf while providing the services we all need to continue healing the public.

We focus on policy and legal action, member services, practitioner protection, community mobilization, and public education.

Because policy wins matter most when practitioners can actually use them in real life. Advocacy and services have to move together. We recognize that the only way to accomplish our mission is to push on all fronts, all at once, with everything we have. Advocacy, both through public education and lobbying lawmakers needs to be combined with removing our money from the systems built to exploit us. We have to do both.

Join our community, enjoy the benefits of membership, and look for the focus area that best matches your experience or interests. If that group doesn't exist yet, you can start it.

We look at concrete changes like laws on the books, improved reimbursement, fewer audits and claw backs, member satisfaction, and a stronger sense of security for practitioners.

Awareness matters, but it is not enough. The mission is to create real shifts in the conditions practitioners face every day.

Success means practitioners have more protection, clearer standards, better support, and a stronger collective voice in the systems that affect them.

Yes. Transparency and accountability are how members, and the public, will know they can trust us. It is essential to the mission.

If you want a practitioner-led organization that is serious about protection, fairness, and practical change, NAP is likely a good fit.
