Our Story

Our team shares a deep commitment to supporting educators who help put students on the path to leading joyful, purpose-driven lives.

If we know that so many teachers experience stress and burnout, why don't we do something about it? Teachers and researchers created Educators Thriving to impact the way school systems support educators. 
 

Our program brings research-based personal development to teachers and leaders in school systems around the United States. Our systems of support work helps leaders shift the systems affecting educators to enhance well-being for all.
