Moving from adversity to regroup to resilience.

Blueprint is a registered charitable society, affiliated with the Faculty of Medicine at UBC. 

We work to strengthen community well-being by translating research into practical tools, training, and programs that help people and teams perform, recover, and thrive through adversity.

Our work supports teams at multiple levels:

• Leadership establishes a culture of peer support and shapes the conditions for meeting challenges head-on, through group-based training and development programs. Lead well→

• Recovery competence and the Blueprint Strategic Regroup™ prevent compounding after critical incidents. Perform well→

• Resiliency education, through the Blueprint First Responder Resiliency Program™, builds deeper skills and support for anyone carrying more than they should alone. Build durable teams→

Our Vision

We’re building a resilient, connected society where people and teams have the shared capacity to perform, recover, and grow together through adversity—and where strong recovery environments strengthen the well-being of whole communities. We’re doing this one team, one organization and one group at a time.

All Blueprint programs are informed by our peer-reviewed research—we work closely with our partners to understand what individuals and teams operating in high adversity environments need to perform well, and recover well, together.

We share what we’ve learned about high performance and resilience with other researchers, clinicians, organizations and community groups to help them adopt best practices that deepen team capacity and performance, whatever their sphere of work.

Blueprint research is supported by our partners at Movember, the Atlas Institute, the University of British Columbia, Vancouver Coastal Health Research Institute, the Canadian Institute for Military and Veteran Health Research, and the VGH+UBC Hospital Foundation.
