For many young people, the isolation, uncertainty, and trauma of the past few years have bred anxiety and depression, with potentially long-lasting effects on their success in school and beyond. Schools must respond to this need by providing thoughtful and effective mental health supports.
Thriving Minds is here to help. Through this initiative—a partnership between the Rennie Center, the Massachusetts School Mental Health Consortium, and bryt—we offer learning opportunities and guidance in building comprehensive mental health systems that allow schools to support all students, now and in the future.
Our team has experience training and coaching teams on a wide range of core mental health concepts, from building an effective student support team to promoting trauma-sensitive classroom practices to utilizing evidence-based counseling practices and monitoring students’ progress. We are particularly focused on building a thoughtful, sustainable approach to providing mental health services—that is, how are schools using their existing staff, teams, and data systems to connect students with the support they need to succeed?
Thriving Minds has worked with districts and schools to provide on-site and virtual trainings, ongoing coaching for leadership teams, and in-depth needs assessment processes.
