Our mission

Hear Me Now’s mission is to make healthcare more humane through storytelling. Hear Me Now is open to all caregivers, patients, their loved ones, and communities.

Edited Hear Me Now clips are used for reflections, social media, newsletters, philanthropy, remembrance, and to relieve caregiver fatigue/burnout, among other things.

With participant permission, recordings are archived in the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress – we consider them to be love letters to posterity. All participants get a digital copy of their recording. CD copies of the recording are available upon request.
