The Latest in Character-Based Research

We stand on the shoulders of giants.

Character.org was founded by scholars and practitioners eager to share with each other their evidence-based research and best practices. Ever since, we have been dedicated to creating a platform to share approaches and strategies that parents, teachers and all caring adults can use to help children and teens care about and practice the character strengths that will enable them to flourish in school, in relationships, in the workplace, and as citizens. 

Every other week Character.org features groundbreaking research and evidence-based strategies that inspire children and teens to be people of character.
