Michelle Dunn and Cheryl McGee Presenting Breakout Session 09

 Supporting Student Wellness: Integrating Mental Health into MTSS

 

In this session, participants will explore the importance of mental health and social emotional learning within a multi-tiered system of support (MTSS). The session will examine the current reality of student and adult mental health in schools and communities and ways in which an integrated system addresses academic, behavior, and social emotional skill, setting both students and teachers up for success. The importance of creating a system that attends to the well being of both adults and students will be discussed, and examples of effective systems across multiple states will be shared. Participants will be engaged in a collaborative participant experience which fosters the sharing of ideas that will assist in aligning mental health initiatives for building resilient students.
