It takes a villageAt Zenly we believe that there is no such thing as 'other people's children', that we are all in this together. Community can be hard to find in city upbringings, so Zenly created a space to feel a sense of belonging and support. Frankie provides safe spaces to learn, practise, and benefit from mindfulness, movement, music, and simply being heard. Humans' academic, social-emotional, and mental health are built on a foundation of healthy, consistent, and secure relationships with the people around them. A person's relationship environment begins in the family, and then extends to adults and peers outside of the family who have important roles in their life. Teachers, coaches, family friends, and friends' families occupy this significant place in many young lives. Zenly helps teens adapt in response to their actions, relationships and the environments they exist in.
