We are dedicated to participating in the contribution of research that advances our understanding of the impacts of mindfulness on the quality of life across communities. We partner with respected institutions to implement both quantitative and qualitative assessments. We also evaluate our training methods to objectively determine our efficacy.
In partnership with Urban Peak Youth Homeless Center and Dr. Scott Harpin from the University of Colorado School of Nursing, we conducted a qualitative study on the impact a 4-week mindfulness intervention program has on homeless youth struggling with drug addiction and mental illness. The preliminary results of the study show promising effects, particularly with sleep and anger management.
