Who We Are

The Happiness & Well-Being Learning Collaborative brings together researchers, residents, scholars, organizers, educators, thought leaders, and social communities and empowers them to increase personal and community well-being where they live, work, and play.  By creating an environment of mutual exploration and understanding, innovative ideas will develop and foster sustainable changes, and community well-being will increase, creating a ripple effect that will allow all citizens to reach their fullest potential and live happy, healthy, meaningful lives.
