About

Timothy P. Shriver, Ph.D., is President and Chief Executive Officer of Special Olympics International, and Chair of the Leadership Team of the Collaborative for the Advancement of Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL). Prior to joining Special Olympics, Shriver was the Supervisor of the New Haven, Connecticut, Public Schools' Social Development Project, a comprehensive, K-12, primary prevention effort involving students, parents, teachers, administrators, community leaders, and scholars. The Project, which he launched in 1987, is designed to prevent substance abuse, violence, and teen pregnancy. In 1994, he helped launch CASEL, a national organization to promote effective school-based prevention programming. In that role, he continues to advocate for effective primary prevention programming in schools nationwide. Shriver has written extensively on these issues and has coauthored several publications including, “Promoting Positive Social Development and Health Practices in Young Urban Adolescents,” “Involvement in Multiple Program Behaviors of Young Urban Adolescents,” “No Safe Haven: A Study of Violence Exposure in an Urban Community,” and “No New Wars.” He may be contacted at Special Olympics International, Inc., 1325 G St., NW, Suite 500, Washington, DC 20005.
