Introducing Mental Health Moments
During these uncertain times of limited social exposure and disruption of routines, the mental health of our young people should be an important area of focus. To support this, ESS offers Mental Health Moments, “bite sized” tips and strategies for educators and parents to support student mental health.
There are a lot of digital mental health resources available to support our students and community. I try not to include too many links in each newsletter in order to avoid digital overload but this is one resource I find very comprehensive, useful and relevant to all of our families. The resources are available in Spanish too.
