How We Can Help
Mission
Creating pathways for transformation through the Science of Hope.
Welcome.
Hope Strategies is a division of the Lynn Institute for Healthcare Research focused on bringing the principles and frameworks of the Science of Hope and Trauma-Informed Care to corporations, communities, nonprofit and faith-based organizations, governmental entities, and the public-at-large.
We do this through Hope training opportunities, seminars and summits, keynote presentations, and guidance and support for implementing a Hope framework and strategies. Additionally, Hope Strategies has developed Hope-centered programs that can be used by organizations and in communities.
We are pleased to work extensively with Chan Hellman, Ph.D. author of Hope Rising: How the Science of Hope Can Change Your Life. Dr. Hellman works jointly with Hope Strategies on a variety of initiatives, program development, Navigator training, integrative methods, and conferences, seminars and presentations. We are honored to have his endorsement of our work and collaboration on Hope-centered efforts.
“Hope is the bridge between the impossible and the possible.”
- Joseph Bellezzo

In more than 2,500 research studies Hope has been identified as one of the strongest predictors of success and well-being.
Hope is not optimism or positivity, it is a science that is changing individuals, families, communities, and organizations. Hope can impact processes and policies, enhance student learning, reduce employee burnout and increase productivity, help individuals improve their physical and mental health.
