MiSpace Grants
A Mindful Investment in the Next Generation
We are committed to helping young people reach their full potential by ensuring they have the tools they need to succeed—but we can’t do it alone.
We proudly provide MiSpace Grants to Chicago area community centers.
This enables the creation and expansion of vital, barrier-free mental health programs for preteens and teens who need them most.
With a total investment of $1M, our grants plant the seed of a healthier future, growing access to resources that foster emotional resilience, self-expression, and a foundation for lifelong well-being within underserved communities.
How it Works
MiSpace Grants support a variety of therapeutic programs at participating community centers, including group therapy sessions, mindfulness-based therapies, arts therapies, and more.
Each MiSpace-funded program or service is built upon a key component of our Mielle Method approach to youth mental wellness, which emphasizes mindfulness practices, lifelong learning, skill building, and personal growth and development.
Striving toward meaningful, long-term change, our MiSpace Grants not only enable the initial creation or expansion of these youth mental health offerings but additionally provide the resources for our partners to maintain them over time.
