The Creative Resilience Collective (CRC) is a multidisciplinary collective working at the intersection of art, design, health care, legal aid, research, and technology.

In Philadelphia, we initiate projects with underserved communities and advocates looking to combat stigma and improve access to self-determined mental health care support. We believe our collective agency can create positive change in care systems leading to more equitable futures. We do this through educational workshops, study groups, critical writing, public art, youth programs, and the building of local tools and resources to shape the evolution of dignified care.

Modeled after CRC, Creative Resilient Youth is an intergenerational youth-led collective promoting equitable mental health care through co-learning, socially engaged art, and leadership training. We envision a future where every young person has the healing resources and skills needed to:
  •  Access their authentic selves to define and communicate care for themselves on their own terms.
  • Influence how mental health is talked about and cared for in their peer group, families, and communities, and other youth-serving spaces.
  • Create tools to address injustices in youth mental health care systems.
