Whether you’re looking for up-to-date credible information to ease your mind, a free workshop to learn about resiliency, or quick daily coping tips, it’s here. This site provides a diverse collection of quick and easy resources to support your mental health.

ANXIETY

As front-line workers in our schools, education staff often have greater stress and feelings of anxiety than experienced in many other occupations.

Supporting Your Staff: Mental Health in the Workplace

During times of significant uncertainty, it can be helpful for employees to know that you have a plan to address their concerns and support them during difficult times.

DEPRESSION

It cannot be stated enough that your mental health matters. Feeling depressed is not a sign of weakness. The feeling can be treated.

Social Connection and Loneliness

Social connection is important for sustaining our sense of feeling cared for, supported, and listened to. Positive interactions from our supportive relationships improve our mood.

TAKING CARE OF ME

We are not designed to be in stress mode all the time. When our stress systems get overworked, we are at increased risk for physical health and mental health problems.

BEREAVEMENT, GRIEF AND LOSS

Grief is a natural process that our minds and bodies undergo when we experience a significant loss in our life. There is a range of things you can do to support yourself during this challenging time.
