About me
How can schools integrate proactive, Tier 1 Mental Health Literacy (MHL) into their schools as part of a Multi-Tiered Systems of Supports (MTSS) while aligning with evolving health education standards? During this interactive session, Mental Health Collaborative (MHC), a national nonprofit based in MA, will explore why MHL is critical to include in MTSS and include the four key components of MHL: reducing stigma, understanding mental illnesses, promoting positive mental health, and enhancing help-seeking efficacy. Participants will walk away with actionable steps and evidence-based tools to bring this education to educators, middle and high school students, athletic coaches, and caregivers. This session is designed for school administrators seeking to build sustainable, school-wide mental health initiatives that support students, staff, and families.
