ASPAH recognises that all performing artists, young and old, amateur and professional, have unique needs that may not be met by standard models of healthcare.

Therefore it promotes: Accessible high-quality holistic healthcare for all performing artists; Education for health workers, teachers, performers and students to improve health and wellbeing; Research across disciplines relevant to the health and wellbeing of performing artists; A culture of lifelong preventative healthcare and safety practices for performing artists and performing arts institutions; Multidisciplinary discourse among health professionals, educators and performing artists; Increased community awareness of performing arts healthcare issues.
