Mental health and wellness are part of Alberta’s provincial curriculum. Edmonton Public Schools (EPSB) collaborates with families and community and healthcare partners to create and maintain a culture of wellness in schools. Through school, all students have the opportunity to better understand and develop their mental health and well-being, whether it’s learning about healthy relationships, better understanding ways to manage stress or being referred for targeted supports and services. Some students will grow and benefit from participating in classroom activities and developing positive relationships with their peers, while other students may need more targeted, short-term supports.
Donations in support of Mental Wellness at Edmonton Public Schools allow for more mental health support for more students. By supporting Mental Wellness in our schools, we can ensure that more students have access to the supports they need most, when they need it most.
