What We Do

What We Do

Facilitate programs in the classroom and school:

  • ​Planned in collaboration with the teacher and the principal

  • Focuses on mental health

  • Classroom based (not individual)

  • Designed to build a teacher's capacity, therefore the teacher must be present during the program

  • Once a program has been completed, BEST will not facilitate it for a second time with the same teacher

Parent Information Sessions:

  • These are done periodically throughout the school year depending upon the Wellness Coach's time availability in their community.

  • Mental Health Information sharing table at local events
