You – the engaged puzzle solver

You are a person, group or organization who is seeking to shift in a positive way the health and well-being of individuals and their social and physical worlds. For you, it's not just about changing people (like many other efforts focus on) - but also focusing on the organizations, communities and other social contexts in which they live.

People should be active partners in the process (co-creators). And we focus as much on the 'conceivers' and 'doers' of programs as the stakeholders and beneficiaries - the 'shift' is in their heads as much as it is in achieving improved health and social outcomes. You should be open to this shift as well.







“It’s important to be busy, but if you don’t find the time to change the world, then you’re busy keeping it the way it is.” 

 Albert Jones, Janitor and volunteer school bus driver during desegregation of Boston’s public schools
