Learn about Daoist Traditions and the Certification and Agreement for Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) grants for students.  HEERF I Daoist Traditions has signed and submitted the Certification and Agreement for Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) grants for students. Click here for the full Quarterly Budget and Expenditure Reporting . The College has used 50% of the funds received ($13,531.00) to provide Emergency Financial Aid Grants to students. Grants were distributed to the 98 students who are eligible to participate in Title IV eligible programs. Daoist Traditions distributed the grant money equally among the Title IV eligible student population. Students were notified and required to sign a document acknowledging the purpose of the CARES Act funds which states: The Department of Education has released funding from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act to higher education institutions who go through an application process and request those funds on behalf of their students. Daoist Traditions took these steps and have chosen to disburse the funds allotted in the grant to provide emergency assistance to needy students equally among our student population. This grant is being made available to students for the sole and exclusive purpose of providing emergency funds to students for their expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to coronavirus, such as food, housing, course materials, technology, and health care. These funds are not considered Title IV financial aid, so they will not impact your financial aid that you traditionally receive at Daoist Traditions, nor do you have to do any further application for these funds if you do not typically request aid. This is a grant that Daoist Traditions is receiving, with explicit instruction to deliver a large percentage as emergency relief direct to our students. We understand that all of our students have been impacted by the pandemic in some form, and hope that this assistance helps in some way.

MAHM, CCHM, CLINIC < Back Mary Burke-Pitts MAOM, L. Ac., Dipl. Ac. (NCCAOM) Mary Burke-Pitts has been studying Chinese medicine for 11 years and attended Daoist Traditions College of Chinese Medical Arts in Asheville, North Carolina from 2008-2012, where she earned her Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine degree. Mary is certified by the National Certification Commission of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and licensed to practice Chinese medicine in North Carolina. Her interest in Chinese medicine grew out of a passion for gardening. Before studying Chinese medicine Mary worked for Joe Hollis of Mountain Gardens to learn to grow Chinese medicinal herbs. Her interest in botany and herbal preparation continued after completing her studies at Daoist Traditions. She was involved with a farmer’s cooperative focused on growing Chinese medicine herbs in Western North Carolina. Currently, she is involved with community gardens. Her private practice, Longevity Acupuncture & Apothecary is located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina. The mountains’ strength and wisdom provide a beautiful home for her practice, which promotes and nourished a full life so that the body and spirit may feel light and free. Her longevity philosophy of Chinese medicine is also symbolized by 9 mountaintops, each peak representing major themes we move through in our lifetime: health, wealth, abundance, relationship, creativity, travel, career, wisdom, and finally reaching a sense of peace and completion. Her specialties are mental and emotional well being and neurology. Mary has studied qi gong, tai chi and sword forms in the US with Gregory Casey, Master Bing and Master Chen from the Wudang tradition. She has also completed numerous lectures by Jeffrey Yuen on favorite topics including the roots of Chinese herbal medicine, tree spirit medicine, and numerous other topics on healing since 2008. These studies have enriched a personal exploration of understanding Daoism in a modern era and longevity practices.
