Wayfinder was born at the Stanford Institute of Design after asking one key design question: how can we reimagine adolescent education to develop a student’s sense of meaning, purpose, and belonging? Rather than recycle old solutions to curb student depression and anxiety, Wayfinder is addressing the youth mental health crises in a new innovative model.

Our expert team of administrators, teachers, designers, and curricula experts are passionate about bringing belonging, purpose, and meaning to students and educators across the world.
