We are on a mission to solve the youth mental health crisis. How are we doing this?
Our educational programs focus on prevention and seek to provide every child with the skills (and the motivation to use those skills) to build resilience, increase confidence and strengthen self-belief.
We provide children and teens with these skills before they need them. We do this by showing them that the skills are to be practiced not because there is something “wrong” with them, but because the practices will make them better at whatever it is they love to do.
By building these skills early, our youth will be better prepared to cope with life’s inevitable challenges and emerge stronger on the other side.

“I wanted to implement some kind of resiliency program for our students, but struggled to conceptualize and organize the content. The Resilient Youth Program puts the learning in a well-organized and easy to follow format. Once a student consistently applies these concepts throughout their everyday life, they will become better prepared to manage themselves in practically every situation.”
—John Fiore, head of the Physical Education and Wellness Department at Naperville North High School
“Her confidence is off the charts. Mentally, she is in a great place. She is playing like I have never seen her play before. I believe your training was a tremendous help! Thank you and your team!”

“In many cases we wait until kids are in a crisis to teach them these skills, but that is the wrong way to go about it. These should be basic skills taught to every single child because they help them in just about every aspect of their lives — school, extra-curricular activities, peer relationships. The bonus then is that when the child faces a crisis later in life, they are more resilient and better able to handle that crisis because they have built these habits and practices before the crisis happened.”
