what is good wolf?
Teaching Neuroscience. Transforming Lives.
Good Wolf is a new nonprofit organization dedicated to harnessing the power of our brains to improve our lives.
We teach concepts of neuroscience - like the prejudice network in the brain, effects of toxic stress on the developing brain and on functioning of the adult brain, and the life-long possibility of healing and growth via neuroplasticity - to help people become socially competent and self-governing.
We are dedicated to creating a better future through understanding and applying neuroscience knowledge to individual lives, relationships and organizations, and public policies.
