About Us

Incorporated in 2004, the Missouri Pain Initiative is an independent nonprofit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to improving the lives of Missourians in pain. Our mission is to improve the quality of life of people with pain by raising public awareness, promoting self-advocacy and provider practice improvement, and working to remove barriers and increase access to effective pain management. We are a state member of the Alliance of State Pain Initiatives (ASPI) and a American Pain Foundation (APF) Power Over Pain © state partner.

What We Do

  • Educate the general public, health care professionals, policymakers, and the media about pain and pain management treatment options by serving as a regional clearinghouse and resource center.

  • Promote self-advocacy of better pain assessment and management through community education and engagement efforts like the Power Over Pain © campaign.

  • Support healthcare provider practice improvement through continuing education opportunities presented throughout the state.

  • Collaborate with other pain partners like the Advisory Council on Pain and Symptom Management and the Changing the Face of Pain in Missouri collaborative to share resources and knowledge, mobilize efforts to ensure timely and effective access to pain care, and support each other’s pain-related priorities and activities.

We accomplish this through the talent, knowledge, and dedication of our member volunteers and with the support of ASPI, APF, and other non-profit organizations and foundations.
