Project AWARE grant Accomplishments
Here are our previous grant accomplishments:
District and Community Leadership Team (DCLT)
The District and Community Leadership Team (DCLT) is a group of school district and community executive level administration, who have the authority to reallocate resources, change policy, sustain, and scale the key elements and core features of the ISF. The DCLT meets at least three times throughout the school year. Mission/Vision of DCLT: Our community partnerships will promote staff awareness and increase understanding of mental health supports and resources so all students will develop life-long resiliency Progress Monitoring Goal: Analyze the data we have and action plan around it. We will establish baseline data measuring frequency of community clinician contacts with educators for consultation, collaboration, and professional development. (REALiving will track this data)

What is a Professional Coach?
As a professional striving to be your BEST, you may seek someone at times to help you achieve a goal or improve your performance. A coach is there to help with professional development in areas such as organizational skills, leadership development, communication skills, and work/life balance. Important questions to ask yourself as you start the coaching process are: "What do I want to get out of this? What abilities and skill sets do I want to discover and master? How do I want to show up differently so I am my BEST?
A BESTology Professional Coach can also help you navigate setting up EAP resources.
