Giving kids a voice for positive change in their lives,
and those of future generations.
The Imagine Project is a 501c3 organization that offers a free and simple 7-step “Imagine…” journaling process. Imagine journaling provides a simple way for kids K-12 (and adults) to express and process their stress and/or trauma, as well as encouraging them to imagine a new story in their lives. Expressive writing guides individuals to heal difficult life experiences, find the positive meaning of that event; improving emotional regulation ability, mental flexibility, ability to handle stress and over mental and emotional health. It also brings empathy, kindness, and camaraderie to a group or classroom who does The Imagine Project together. We are a non-profit organization based out of Colorado that has successfully reached over 600,000 kids across the US and in 24 countries.
