How and Why We Started

Strong Tower started as a vision in 2012 and became a reality in 2022. Following its inception, it has offered trauma-informed and holistic programs that enhance human well-being in several dimensions of functioning. Humans can build resilience through optimism by focusing on the five pillars of well-being: emotion, engagement, relationship-building, meaning-making, and accomplishment (Seligman, 2011).
