Helix believes that all young people should be able to realize their rights to a happy, healthy childhood. Too many children and youth lack the opportunities to develop to their full potential. We focus on working alongside young people, organizations that serve them, and their allies to create change.
We do this by conducting research and policy analysis; providing strategic insights into program design; and engaging with the public on how to support child & youth resilience.
Helix was launched in 2020 with the goal of contributing to research, advocacy, programs, and public discourse on question of youth resilience. We welcome opportunities to connect with others who are passionate about these same questions.
