We Focus on the Forgotten Side of Mental Health
True social and emotional well-being is more than the absence of mental health problems like anxiety and depression. We focus on the science of human flourishing to understand the conditions that need to exist in order for people to thrive. As well as using innovative research methods to prevent negative outcomes and find solutions to existing problems through foundational science, we study the cultivation of positive outcomes and the environmental factors that foster happiness and success.
We Believe Flourishing is Resilience
We create interventions that promote human flourishing by building resiliency. Drawing on our expertise in the fields of compassion, mindfulness, and social and emotional learning, our evidence-based programs are used in a variety of settings to equip individuals, families, schools, and communities with effective tools and strategies to help them navigate challenging times and live life to its fullest potential.
