We help educators improve their well-being.
​
We believe that attending to the well-being of educators is a prerequisite to achieving the results with students each of us desires. Through our program, participants learn concrete, evidence-based strategies to help them avoid and manage most common pitfalls of the educator experience: overwhelm, personal neglect, adult conflict, unexpected challenges, and isolation.
​
Since our founding at Harvard University in 2018, we've supported schools, districts, unions, and county offices across the world to incorporate well-being supports into their programmatic offerings. Participants reported statistically significant declines in burnout, depression, and anxiety alongside increases in resilience and subjective well-being.
​
How does it work?
2
Participants engage in the sessions synchronously, discussing and reflecting on what they're learning with a small group of 3-4 other colleagues
3
Between sessions, participants apply research-based strategies demonstrated to increase well-being
Our Offerings
Custom Professional Learning Program
Research-based professional development customized to your context.
Our partners gain access to research-based professional development customized to their needs. We collaborate with our partners to integrate learning experiences into preexisting programmatic structures.
Together with our partners, we craft a customized well-being survey that is administered at baseline and at the end of the program. On the basis of the results, our research team runs statistical analyses and produces a synthesis report that includes clear, actionable next steps to improve employee well-being.
