Secure expert interviews and case studies; create issue briefs and design strategies; produce blogs, webinars and infographics. Carefully curate these and other resources into comprehensive, topic-focused, solution-driven toolboxes.

The result: A new way to explore, learn, and solve your healthcare design challenges — Affiliate+.

It’s Not Just a Membership, It’s a Revolution.

When you join The Center as an Affiliate+ member, you join an impressive collective of healthcare industry trailblazers – healthcare providers, designers, architects, product manufacturers, educators and professional organizations – who have supported and partnered with The Center during our 22-year history.

Together we’ve taken an idea once called “crazy” – that you could measure the impact of the physical environment on healthcare outcomes – and made it the rule more often than the exception in healthcare facility projects.

Together we’ve established a proven track record of creating, launching and delivering programs that provide true value to the healthcare design industry – The Pebble Project, EDAC certification, the Affiliate Program, the HERD Journal, the Healthcare Design Expo & Conference, and much more.

Together we’ve achieved some pretty revolutionary change. We’re looking forward to continuing the same with you.
