Pam Roy cofounded the Viktor E. Frankl Institute of America with Frankl's grandson, Alexander Vesely-Frankl, and Moira Hummel to bring Dr. Frankl's inspiring messages about meaning and purpose to modern audiences. She cowrote Viktor E. Frankl and the Search for Meaning: 21 Reflections on Living Life with Purpose and codeveloped the course Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy: The Discovery of Meaning. She is an author, blogger, filmmaker, and philanthropist dedicated to advancing meaning-centered education and strengthening community connections.
Elliot Washor cofounded Big Picture Learning and its flagship school, the Met Center, with Dennis Littky to show how the search for meaning and the power of mattering in public schools can transform the lives of students, their families, and their communities. An educator for over 50 years, he was selected as one of the "Twelve Most Daring Educators in the World" by the George Lucas Educational Foundation. His innovative and proven approach to educating young people calls for new ways, new forms, and new measures in education.
Together, Pam and Elliot cofounded B-Unbound, a program and platform that expands community-based opportunities for young people (primarily aged 14-24). Their mission is to transform education through real-world engagement, empowering young people to pursue meaning and to know that their lives matter.
