Every day, educators are on the frontlines of a growing mental health crisis that deeply affects their students—and themselves. From anxiety and bullying to depression and the risk of suicide, educators are expected to navigate complex emotional and mental health issues while also providing top-notch instruction.

Too often professional development doesn’t provide school staff members with clear guidance and expert-selected strategies for how to meet these challenges effectively. It’s time for a change. 

Educators Have Questions –
They Deserve Answers

Educators play a critical role in promoting positive student mental health and are often the first ones to identify warning signs or implement interventions.

To be effective, all school staff members need high-quality mental health training and strategies identified by experts that can be directly applied in their school. Access to this caliber of professional learning not only improves student success – it helps educators protect their own mental health and the mental wellbeing of the entire school community.
