Supporting the mental health of students in the classroom

Classroom WISE Online Course
Educators and school personnel play a vital role in promoting mental health and well-being and identifying and responding to emerging mental illness in children and adolescents. However, they often have not received the education, training, and/or ongoing support needed to respond in the classroom. To address this need, the MHTTC Network, in partnership with the National Center for School Mental Health, developed a FREE self-guided online course focused on educator mental health literacy, informed by and co-developed with educators from across the nation.
Classroom WISE Video Library
Access over 50 brief, high-impact and engaging videos of students and educators giving examples to help all students feel welcome in the classroom. The videos are embedded in the Classroom WISE online course and also available as stand-alone resources for educators and school personnel.
Classroom WISE Resource Collection
Identifying Student Distress, Tips for Starting Mental Health Conversations, Creating Mental Health Bulletin Boards are just some of the Classroom WISE resources available. This ever-evolving collection includes resources created to supplement the Classroom WISE online course, as well as resources from other mental health and school organizations.

“It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.”
