Capacitar’s mission is to heal ourselves and heal our world. We teach body-based practices that empower people to use their inner wisdom to heal and transform themselves to heal injustice and build peace in their families and communities. Capacitar is an international network of empowerment and solidarity connecting people across borders, ethnicities and beliefs. Our name “Capacitar” means to awaken, to encourage, to bring each other to life.

Make a Difference with Capacitar!
When we reach out beyond our own worlds and touch the lives of others, all of us are empowered. Together we form a community of compassion and service much greater than our individual selves. —Pat Cane, Capacitar Founder
We can’t do the work of social transformation without personal and community healing. Capacitar gives us significant tools to deal with compassion fatigue and to transform the culture of our organization so we can better serve our communities. —Rwanda Team
