Our Roots: Grounded in Proven Psychology

Our programs are based upon the simple, powerful truth that every human being has four core needs:

  • Belonging: to connect and feel seen just as you are.
  • Capability: to grow, improve, and meet life's challenges.
  • Mattering: to have a voice and make a difference for others.
  • Being courageous: to be encouraged and resilient.

These needs are not optional. We all seek to fulfill them, and understanding and nurturing them is the first step to building a thriving family and growing capable young people.
