The National Resilience Institute is a nonprofit organization focused on wellness and resilience education, aiming to prepare individuals and communities for disruption, respond to trauma, and cultivate lasting resilience. Led by Dr. Mollie Marti, the institute develops evidence-based training and tool kits centered on resilience building, with programs that support educators, health and mental health professionals, business leaders, nonprofit staff, community leaders, and parents seeking to strengthen community and individual resilience. Based in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the organization operates within the wellness and fitness services sector, emphasizing cross-sector collaboration and professional education to share research and best practices for trauma-informed resilience at local and state levels. The institute traces its origins to a grassroots resilience project launched in 2011 in response to teen suicides, and it has since expanded to address traumatic loss, post-disaster recovery, and broader community health improvement; it is recognized as a 501(c)(3) organization. A recent development highlighted communications with major medical and academic partners, reflecting ongoing collaboration to broaden access to resilience-focused education and resources.
