The Charles E. Cheever Jr. Center for Medical Humanities and Ethics is now a CompassionateUSA Partner

San Antonio launched an initiative for promoting compassion called “CompassionateUSA”.  CompassionateUSA is a learning journey designed to teach self-compassion and community well-being that honors our common humanity & affirms the beauty of our differences.

The Charles E. Cheever Jr. Center for Medical Humanities and Ethics has joined as partner.   Through the partnership we will help to heal during these times of collective trauma, like the pandemic and school shootings; continue the start of a compassionate community and to be involved in a network of compassionate communities across the USA.
