Members of the council collaborate to take scientifically-based practices from their fields and integrate them into a comprehensive approach to well-being. Approach Anthropedia creates personal development resources and health education programs and videos. These resources and programs are used by schools, physicians, counselors, and individuals who seek to augment their health and well-being. The foundation also collaborates with organizations to customize educational and therapeutic programs to their needs. Projects Anthropedia develops, produces, and disseminates personal development resources and health education programs for individuals and groups.
