Evolving Human Potential — Together
Welcome to NHRDI
At New Human Research Driven Initiatives (NHRDI), we advance human development beyond outdated paradigms. Our work supports rigorous scientific research, whole-person development, and community-centered innovation. Through transformative research and benevolence-driven initiatives, we help cultivate conditions where individuals and communities can thrive; guided by knowledge, equity, and possibility.
Our current initiative, the Chicago Brain Initiative (CBI), focuses on expanding access to brain health education, research, and baseline data to support individuals, families, and communities across Chicago.
