Who We Are Building Resilience Through Mindfulness

Our West Virginia-based AIM team, led by West Virginia University and Marshall University in collaboration with our partner, Mindful Badge, has been successfully delivering Mindfulness-Based Resilience Training (MBRT) to diverse workforce sectors from first responders to healthcare providers in West Virginia since 2018. Our team of certified mindfulness coaches include firefighters, law enforcement officers, behavioral health providers, pharmacists and others, in addition to core staff with backgrounds in public health, psychology and mindfulness training.
