Our Vision
Every individual and family has access to a seamless person-centric community system of care with unencumbered opportunities to reach and maintain optimal levels of health and well-being.
​
Our Mission
To serve communities by delivering innovative sustainable solutions that connect, improve and transform how social and health care agencies together deliver holistic, person-centric care and services.
​MYP is an early-stage systems design approach centering the lived experience of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, We are gathering practitioners and healers of color along with researchers, public health experts, and medical professionals to design a new, evidence-based system of yoga -
Mandela Yoga - and a new teacher training program for residents of public health crisis communities. To deliver Mandela Yoga, we will build a national network of independent, affiliated, free yoga classes in healthcare settings that will be taught by a cadre of well-trained, well compensated, and well-supported teachers of color.
​
We envision a world where those affected by the American public health crisis of racism are empowered to heal their own communities with the proven integrative health benefits and emotional wellbeing of yoga that is offered - without regard to income - where they live, work, worship, and play.
