Character-Inspired Organizations

Our network is our superpower.

One of our goals at Character.org is to advocate for all character-inspired organizations. Every month, Dr. Arthur Schwartz, president of Character.org, speaks with representatives from these organizations to share insights and perspectives about our collective work.

We hope you will be inspired by this exchange of ideas about character.

Current Spotlight

This month we feature Dr. Vicki Zakrzewski, Education Director for the Greater Good Science Center, based at the University of California, Berkeley.
