Message from the CEO
“Empowering Minds. Nurturing Resilience.”
Dear Families and Partners:
Welcome to The Wellness and Resilience Center
We believe every child is capable, every parent is powerful, and every educator is essential.
Our mission is bold, but simple: to empower minds and nurture resilience from the inside out ----beginning with a focus on our youngest learners and their families. And we mean it. When we founded WRC, we weren’t just thinking about programs.
We were thinking about people:
children silently struggling in classrooms, parents doing their best but still feeling overwhelmed and teachers burning out while carrying the emotional weight of every child in their care.
The question we asked ourselves:
What if we built a place that served all of them?
What if mental and emotional wellness wasn’t an afterthought, but the foundation?
What if it were our identity?
That “what if” became our reality.
A Final Word
At WRC, we don’t run from challenges — we run toward them with purpose. Because every child deserves to feel seen. Every parent deserves support. And every teacher deserves to feel valued.
Thank you for walking with us on this mission. Together, we’re empowering minds, nurturing resilience, and changing the narrative for children and families—right here in Dayton, Ohio.
With deep gratitude and unwavering purpose,
Kimberly Jarvis
