Overview

Mission

Support professionals (physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists and other rehabilitation specialists) whose focus is on the physical and psycho-social health of cancer survivors, beyond their primary treatment regimens of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or cancer surgeries.

What it reported doing in 2023

EPOCH granted scholarships to 17 participants and the total number of courses attended was 23. Instructor Julia Osborne, PT, CLT-LANA, is a national clinical leader in oncology rehabilitation and has been instrumental in creating, progressing, and setting the Standard of Care needed for rehabilitative patient management. Having a deep understanding of the effect that cancer treatments (surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation therapy) can have on the body, she developed the treatment protocols to address them. A Fulbright scholar, Julia has taught classes in oncology rehabilitation world-wide, through an organization called PORI. Epoch used donated funds to scholarship students throughout the world, who were able to take her classes via zoom and in person.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
