CITIESRISE INC

Accelerator cr: supports social entrepreneurs to take their models to scale with path-to-market strategies, development of business models, and integration with systems operating at scale for long-term sustainability. This initiative is based on an understanding of the existing evidence about what works to improve mental health and then scaling up and adapting what works to new populations. As access to technology continues to reach previously unserved populations, the avenues for mental health services and support will also increase. Learning from experience and further building and applying the evidence of what works to improve mental health is a key element of the program.

Ecosystem development: an approach to advancing knowledge in the youth mental health field and strengthening the network of stakeholders focused on inner development. Citiesrise convenes partners, leads thought leadership, and builds alignment across sectors through shared outcomes and coordinated action across national, state, and local levels. Activities include stakeholder convening, partnership development, equipping youth-facing systems and leaders, and mobilizing both young people and system leaders to create environments that support inner development and wellbeing.
