Because of the pandemic, on March 17th Peru enacted martial law, declared a total quarantine and border closure, as well as halted all air travel and land transportation. This was originally supposed to end after 2 weeks but it has already been extended multiple times and is expected to continue on until June, possibly later. Because of this, Parign Hak has had to cancel upcoming retreats, and it's uncertain when the center will be able to reopen. 

Jessica is currently in Salvacion, an Amazonian town near Parign Hak, and unable to leave. She is struggling to get her two daughters out of Lima and reunite with them. She has incredibly limited access to internet, and due to martial law is restricted to the small house she is currently renting there. Because Parign Hak is not operational, she has no source of income. She is the primary provider for her daughters, and the three of them are in need of financial help getting by until the pandemic is over, and things have normalized in Peru.

If you are friends with Jessica, if she or her amazing work with traditional Amazonian plant medicine has transformed your life in any way, please consider donating to this campaign, and help out an amazing healer and wonderful person. 

Thank you!
