Imvelo

People do better in better environments. We help build them.

A nonprofit organization in Washington, DC

What we mean by environment

An environment is not only the room you are standing in. It is also the one you carry — how you think under pressure, how you treat yourself, what you believe is available to you. Imvelo works on both.

  • MentalRegulation, self-regard, and the ability to think clearly when it is hardest to.
  • PhysicalThe body, the home, the street, the school — the conditions people actually live inside.
  • SpiritualPurpose, belonging, and the quieter work of knowing who you are.

What we run

For young people

L3 — Love, Leadership & Logic

A twelve-week program delivered in school with students in Grades 8 and 9. Small groups, two trained adults in the room, and measured outcomes the school keeps.

For men

The Foundation

A group for men working on accountability and growth — so they can be a steadier foundation for their families and their communities.

Working with us

We are looking for schools in the District to host the first L3 cohorts, and for partners and funders who want to help make them happen. If that is you, get in touch.
