ABOUT WEI

WEI is a multidisciplinary 501(c)3 organization. Our team is comprised of social workers, criminologists, public policy, and mental health professionals, along with a wide range of specialty field partners.

Founded in 2021, after years of working at premier university research centers with innovators and social scientists researching from multiple disciplines, Wellbeing and Equity Innovations (WEI) was born. Thanks to our team of researchers and practitioners, the need for new, sustainable, and equitable change with a focus on human potential, and with the help of fellow board members, the vision for WEI became a reality.
