Mental health is central to our mission of raising the academic achievement levels of Black and Latino students. In this presentation, participants will learn about Embrace the Mind: A Mental Wellness Initiative of ICEF Public Schools. This interactive workshop will explore the “why”, “what”, and “how” of Embrace the Mind as a trauma-informed, ICEF-wide effort to support the mental wellness of students, staff, and families. Participants will learn what trauma-informed practices are most effective in building a culture of wellness in the classroom and within school communities. Participants will walk away understanding what roles teachers, staff, and administrators can play in promoting mental wellness on their campuses and the purpose of Embrace the Mind as a comprehensive student-, staff-focused, family-focused initiative.
