ANF Founding


The ANF's Strategic Plan for 2015 and Beyond
Shortly after our founding in 2014, the ANF's Executive Committee published our "Strategic Plan for 2015 and Beyond"  where we identified acupuncture’s biggest barriers and our efforts to address them.  While these goals were big and seen by many to be unachievable, we continue to believe that someone needed to set such goals and encourage the acupuncture community to work collectively toward making these a reality.

In the videos below, you can learn more about the ANF's founding principals. We welcome feedback from anyone that shares our goals. Thank you!  

Below please find three videos by ANF President, Matthew Bauer. The first video (7 minutes) - "Healing the Acupuncture Profession – Connecting the Dots” - was released in February 2016. It provides an update of the ANF’s activities since our founding as well as detailing our efforts working with acupuncturists internationally. The next two videos (shorter and longer versions) are those we released to announce our founding in late 2014. These videos, together with the Strategic Plan we released in 2015 found above, explain the ANF’s mission of educating the public, healthcare professionals, and health policymakers about the practice of acupuncture. Please contact us with any questions. 
You may also utilize some of our resources and educational outreach campaigns . 
For those looking for more detail, the next video is an extended version of the video above.
