Imagine a world where every young person thrives, supported by the caring relationships and inner resources required for a lifetime of wellness.
Our vision invites many disciplines, perspectives and people to come together. We seek to promote the wellness of young people and the systems and adults who support them through interdisciplinary research-practice partnerships. That is the shared work of the Renée Crown Wellness Institute.
Welcome.
Building Connections
We are a home for research and practice that is dedicated to the social and emotional wellness of all young people, and because we believe wellness must be understood in context, the wellness of adults who support them.
That’s why we’re pursuing a new paradigm of research, rooted in connection. Our work builds connections across disciplines within the university and partnerships where teams of researchers, families, teachers, young people, and community members work together as equal partners. We co-design and study transformative practices, programs, and policies that foster wellness among children and youth, families and communities, and educators.
We are growing this community. Together, we identify dilemmas, seed solutions and harvest what works—for as many children and young people as possible.
