Develop and test empirically-based, creative public health approaches to addressing psychological problems.

Other Information:

For over a century, public health has embraced a comprehensive approach to intervention centered on risk-factors - and leading to dramatic advances in the collective health of society. Mental healthcare, however, has been slow to adopt a similar approach. In spite of vast numbers of studies on risk factors for depression, anxiety, ADHD and other mental disorders, for instance, there seems to be very few successful efforts to translate that knowledge into practical applications. As a top priority, All of Life aims to develop and test empirically-based, creative public health approaches to addressing psychological problems on a larger scale. So far, we have found that simply making current research findings accessible to those facing these problems can be a powerful intervention itself - helping individuals and families think for themselves about their own unique path towards healing.
