Our Empathy Programs

Empathy is a powerful antidote to violence. Research shows that pathologic aggression and predatory violence come from a lack of empathy, and teaching empathy can intervene to save lives. Our empathy programs are upstream investments in a world where abuse and violence are prevented, those who have been harmed can heal, and the cycle of violence is broken.
