Apart But Not Alone was founded in April 2020 by a brother-sister duo (then 15 and 11) who recognized that students worldwide needed mental wellbeing tools to navigate unprecedented uncertainty. What began as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic has grown into a thriving global community now in its sixth year. 

​

We provide free, live-guided mindfulness sessions led by certified meditation coaches. Originally designed for teens and young adults, our program has organically expanded to welcome participants of all ages who seek tools for mental wellbeing. Through continued practice, participants learn to calm their inner storms, build resilience, and embrace life's challenges with greater ease.

Global Reach, Local Roots

While our online sessions connect participants worldwide, we've also established local chapters that bring mindfulness practice into communities. These chapters, led by trained volunteers and certified practitioners, offer in-person sessions tailored to their region's unique needs—whether in schools, community centers, libraries, or other accessible spaces. Local chapters create opportunities for deeper connection, ongoing practice groups, and culturally responsive programming that honors the diverse backgrounds of participants.

​

​To date, we've reached over 5,000 attendees across 21 countries, creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where people of all identities, backgrounds, and abilities can find peace and discover tools for wellbeing. ​
