Join the Movement

The KNN is leading a movement to unite organizations and teams with a shared goal of transforming the profession of medicine toward flourishing for all.

Create a Culture of Flourishing in Your Organization

“This work speaks right to my soul. How can I get involved?”

As we talk with leaders, faculty, staff and learners in medicine each day, words like those are a frequent sentiment. Across the country, there is growing recognition that a movement has the power to unite organizations and individuals with a shared goal of transforming clinical learning and practice environments so those within can flourish.

We are excited to share formal ways to partner with us in the movement toward flourishing in medicine:

  • Become a Catalyst organization for full institutional involvement. Activate a powerful theory of change toward flourishing organization-wide.
  • Join as a Changemaker group at the department or team level. Make an immediate difference in your sphere of influence.
