Our Staff at The UCLA Family Commons

The mission of The UCLA Family Commons is to inspire families and communities to discover their unique potential for well-being. We offer a welcoming environment filled with classes, events, coaching and excitement about creating healthy, engaged lives.

We envision a world where all possess the tools they need to move through the world with confidence and innovation—for life. Healthier families make stronger communities, and healthier communities make stronger families. When children and parents take charge of their own well-being, they build both.
