About
Imagine a World Where Every Young Person Thrives
At the Renée Crown Wellness Institute, our mission is to create a world where every young person thrives, supported by caring relationships and inner resources needed for a lifetime of wellness.
Our vision invites many disciplines, perspectives, and people to come together to co-design and study transformative practices, programs, and policies that promote wellness across the lifespan. We partner with children and youth, families and communities, and educators recognizing that the wellness of young people is deeply interconnected with the wellness of the systems and adults who support them.
Mission
We seek to promote the wellness of young people and the systems and adults who support them through interdisciplinary research-practice partnerships.
Vision
We imagine a world where every young person thrives, supported by the caring relationships and inner resources required for a lifetime of wellness.
"The Crown Institute is dedicated to building a world where every young person thrives. That means being supported by both caring relationships and inner resources. It also means doing work that’s focused not only on the mental health and wellness of children and young people, but also on the adults and systems in their lives."
