Partners

Core to our mission is collaboration and supporting the good work of others. We believe we all do more together than we ever could alone!

Partner with us!

We build tools and resources that are meant for EVERYONE. Increasing our impact means helping to increase the impact of others doing good in the world.  We are here to help, and can provide support on the specific how-to’s of easily using these tools, and examples of how others have successfully used these resources in their communities.

Our tools are open access, so YES you can use them in your organization or institution. We only ask that content not be altered or changed so we can ensure they meet our rigorous quality and scientific standards. Are you concerned that something out our resources doesn’t match up with what is possible or available in your organization? Reach out! We can discuss creating a customized version for you like we have done many times before.

We also know many organizations are hesitant to use resources that don’t include their logo. Partnering with us can open up that possiblity as well. We want to reduce any and all barriers to access!

Interested in translated content? We can do that!

As part of our commitment to healthcare equity and access, we want to make our tools available for EVERYONE. We want our resources in as many languages as possible, so please make a request if it would be useful to your patient population.

We prefer to have medical providers do our translation work to ensure that we are preserving the intent of the language (rather than straight translation of the words) and so we can get feedback on any cultural difference issues that may be present. If you are interested, please reach out to ellie.richardson@megfoundationforpain.org.
