This Legacy work is at the core of the community transformation
focus of Well Being Trust. As our most "upstream" strategy, it
complements our portfolio of other more "downstream" investments
in clinical transformation for whole person care; policy advocacy
for increasing affordable access to quality mental health services;
and social engagement with tweens, teens, and their families to
"normalize the conversation" and build well-being and resilience skills.
In 2019, this work will be carried even further with many
partners, including 100 Million Healthier Lives, Community
Commons, Community Initiatives, PolicyLink, ReThink
Health, and in coordination with communities from Seattle,
Washington to Greenville, South Carolina and Algoma,
Wisconsin to Omaha, Nebraska.
EMOTIONAL WELL BEING LAB
In 2018, Well Being Trust continued
to incubate a new social venture led
by the 19th Surgeon General, Vivek
Murthy, MD. With ours and others
support, his formative Emotional Well
Being Lab is building out the science
base and growing the public/influencer
discourse on what increases and
what depletes personal, family, and
community well-being. Dr. Murthy also
serves as our first Senior Fellow, helping
guide our National Advisory Council.
