We understand that the human family is in crisis and that all people are worthy and deserving of compassion. Our mission is to reach out to families to help them create and maintain more loving and healthy relationships. We are committed to an ongoing research program that improves social understanding and contributes to the development of effective interventions.
Our mission is to make our services accessible to as many people as possible regardless of race, religion, class, culture, sexual orientation and ethnicity. We strive to care for and support our Institute members, because we know that compassion starts with ourselves.
