Here’s the Movement
The Statue of Responsibility is a monument and a movement; a dream of Dr. Viktor E. Frankl, Holocaust survivor and world-renowned clinical psychiatrist. It’s a catalyst for a unifying global project to enshrine and share this fundamental value, Responsibility.
Together, for our kids, grandkids, friends, family, and generations to come, we will build responsibility, both literally and figuratively. A monument and visitor experience will educate, elevate, and engage people from around the world empowering millions to make life better. Combined with an educational outreach program to teach the principles of responsibility, the Statue of Responsibility is a worldwide movement, the solution which solves many of the world’s biggest problems.
Responsibility + Liberty = Freedom.
Teaching the children of America the importance of Responsibility in every choice we make and action we take. At the same time Involving adults, communities, organizations, and businesses in the conversation about the important relationship between our liberties and responsibilities.
Helping to build the Statue of Responsibility is an epic “once in a century” opportunity for our nation as was the case with the Statue of Liberty in the 19th century.
Engaging people by sharing inspiring stories of responsibility, connecting through media, holding events, and providing unforgettable experiences. Begin and accelerate the involvement in a national dialogue around the nation about Responsibility to increase civic engagement on issues and policies.

All News & UpdatesThe Statue of Responsibility
We are on a mission to build an iconic monument, The Statue of Responsibility, to literally elevate our hearts and minds to higher levels of Responsibility for generations to come. Helping to build the Statue of Responsibility is an epic “once in a century” opportunity for our nation. This monument will differ from others in that it will serve as a tribute to the future, rather than memorialize the past.
The monument will be built in three phases and we hope to complete it by 2020.
Progress update: The Foundation’s municipality selection competition was a success.Throughout 2017, we narrowed it down to four cities in California. The site selection process continues to move forward, but the board has decided to erect 30-foot statues in these four cities as a precursor to the official 305-foot Statue of Responsibility. Our main objective is to construct the first 30-foot monument this year, with others to follow in future years.

The 30′ Statue of Responsibility
As more and more people, organizations and cities want to be part of our movement, we are working with them to place a 30′ replica of the Statue of Responsibility. It can be an iconic symbol for your community values. The “hand clasping hand” representing the concept that LIBERTY + RESPONSIBILITY maximizes the FREEDOMS we enjoy, will become the rallying point for your community.
This statue will be placed on a pedestal, representing the visitors and education center that will be part of the Statue of Responsibility. It will also have an information kiosk that will tell stories of responsibility past and present including stories from your community and lead your citizens to commit to becoming more committed to being involved.
Are you ready for your community to join the movement?
