About Grand Rapids Center for Mindfulness
Founded in 2011, GRCFM has led hundreds of participants through mindfulness programs in small group, workshop, corporate, and community settings. Our programs are based on the groundbreaking work of Jon Kabat-Zinn at the Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center. In March 2020, we added online workshops, courses, and presentations, and we're honored to be able to connect with people beyond our geographical area in this new format.
