MAKING COMPASSION A HABIT

We strengthen connectedness through compassion experiences for all ages.

MAKING COMPASSION A HABIT

We strengthen connectedness through compassion experiences for all ages.

Amidst a staggering national youth mental health crisis, with ever-increasing rates of social isolation, loneliness, polarization, and suicide, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stated that connectedness to school and home is the #1 most protective factor for youth well-being and mental health.

At Mindful Littles, we employ evidence-based compassion practices to connect youth to each other and to those around them—their peers, schools, families and community. We build self-acceptance, foster belonging and uplift those in need, actively bridging communities through our powerful work.

WORKPLACE PROGRAMS

“It takes a village to raise a child.”

—African Proverb

Our vision is to bring compassion education to as many children as possible, and we can’t do it alone. That’s why we bring our compassion programs not only to schools and youth groups, but to workplaces as well.

For every workplace program purchased, we expand our capacity to bring mindful service learning programs to communities in need.

Our unique, multi-faceted business model supports our nonprofit sustainable long-term growth.
