Cultural Inclusiveness and Equity WISE

A new companion training to Classroom WISE entitled Cultural Inclusiveness and Equity WISE (Well-Being Information and Strategies for Educators) was developed by the Central East MHTTC at Danya Institute, Inc. in partnership with the National Center for School Mental Health. In this training, K-12 educators and school staff will learn how inequities in education impact student mental health and how implicit bias influences our perceptions and responses. Building on this foundation, educators and school staff will learn culturally inclusive classroom strategies to support student mental health. 

Similar to Classroom WISE, the training includes an online course, video library and resource collection. Through the 2-hour, self-paced online course, educators and school staff will engage in learning and reflection to promote their cultural self-awareness and their understanding of the impacts of social injustices on students. Learners will also be equipped with culturally inclusive and equitable strategies to promote student well-being and support students experiencing adversity, distress, and mental health concerns in the classroom.
