For schools and organizations

Bring the KNOWN Framework to the children you serve.

KNOWN gives educators and family programs a shared language for what children need around them and what grows within them. It brings together research from developmental psychology, attachment science, neuroscience, public health, and motivation science, and every claim is labeled by the strength of its evidence.

Written for school leaders, educators, and family program directors.

Inside the white paper

The research, the model, and how it works in practice

A short, citable overview written to be shared with a principal, a board, or a leadership team.

The research

What developmental science shows about how children grow self understanding, self regulation, and relational capacity, and why those capacities depend on the conditions around them.

Every claim is labeled Established, Supported, or KNOWN synthesis.

The model

The KNOWN Framework: the developmental conditions adults create, the practices that bring those conditions into everyday experience, and the human capacities children gradually develop.

Includes the full framework map.

In practice

What KNOWN looks like in a classroom, a school, or a family program, and the shared language it gives the adults and families around each child.

Includes questions to guide a first conversation with your team.

Who it is for

For the adults responsible for childhood

KNOWN works wherever adults are responsible for a child's development.

  1. School leaders looking for one coherent framework for student development and wellbeing
  2. Teachers who want a shared language with the families they serve
  3. Micro schools, learning pods, and homeschool cooperatives
  4. Pediatric practices and family support programs
  5. Early childhood and parent education programs
  6. Employers offering family benefits to working parents

One framework serves families at home and adults at school, so children hear the same language in both places.
