Honoring Tradition While Looking Ahead

The College’s story begins with two people. Kingdom College of Natural Health was founded by Dr. Henry and Jan Harbuck, whose decades of service established the College as a trusted name in natural health education. Under their stewardship, KCNH grew from a vision into an institution – one built on the conviction that practitioners of natural medicine deserve rigorous, ethically grounded formation.

The College’s current leaders came to KCNH first as students. What began as their own pursuit of credentialed, disciplined study in naturopathy and natural medicine became something deeper: a conviction that the work the Harbucks began was worth carrying forward. They walked the same academic path that every KCNH graduate walks, and they graduated with the same commitment to responsible practice that the College has always asked of its students.

Today, they hold the privilege of leading the institution that formed them. As President and Director of Education, and Director of Operations, they carry the responsibility of preserving what Dr. Henry and Jan built while raising the College to meet the demands of a new era in natural health education. The mission has not changed. What has changed is nearly everything that supports it.

Curriculum across all degree programs has been rebuilt from the ground up – rewritten to reflect current research and best practices, verified against primary sources, and held to academic standards substantially higher than the College has required in years past. The learning platform has been rebuilt as well, replacing legacy systems with a modern dashboard, structured coursework, and assessment tools designed to measure genuine competence rather than completion. Faculty expectations, grading integrity, and graduation requirements have all been elevated in step.

This is a deliberate choice. KCNH graduates enter a wellness field that is more visible, more scrutinized, and more in need of credible practitioners than ever before. The College’s current leadership believes that honoring the Harbuck’s legacy requires more than preserving it – it requires strengthening it. Every revision, every new standard, and every raised expectation exists for a single reason: to ensure that a KCNH credential continues to mean something, and to ensure that graduates leave the College genuinely prepared for the responsibility they choose.

Drs. Stacy and Nicole Kimmel stand as stewards, not founders.  The legacy is not theirs to reinvent; it is theirs to honor, protect, and advance. Every student who enrolls at KCNH today enters a tradition more than thirty years in the making – now supported by the curriculum, platform, and standards that the next thirty years will require.
