Founded in 2007, The Interdependence Project (IDP) began as an informal multi-secular Buddhist gathering for meditation, arts, and activism, and has since evolved into a 501c3 non-profit organization, with a focus on educating and supporting mindfulness and meditation teachers. Today, IDP is the premier mindfulness teacher training institute in New York City. Our programs enable everyone to learn to offer meditation and compassion techniques to adults and children with integrity and skill.
