Mattering Movement
The Mattering Movement is a nonprofit avtivating the science of mattering in education to build campus communities where everyone is valued, contributes and thrives.
Mattering at NYU
As part of my Fall 2025 course Achievement Culture & the American Dream: Who Matters? students created and led a mattering pop-up in Washington Square Park. They shared the scholarship and science of mattering with passers by, interviewed people about their experiences with mattering, and made note cards where people could write notes or leave notes for strangers. A beautiful example of mattering in action!
