School Wellness Programs

Schools play a crucial role in the holistic development of the child. It is an ideal environment where we can enhance the social and emotional wellbeing of the students. By social and emotional wellbeing, we mean the ability to manage emotions well, grow up to be confident individuals, able to deal with challenges effectively, have adequate Intra and interpersonal skills and enhance resilience. 

The Objective of Our School Wellness Program

• To enhance emotional wellness in children
• To promote positive mental health
• To reduce stigma about mental health concerns
• For early identification of mental health issues in children 

Outline of Our School Wellness Program 

Our program works with the primary stakeholders by addressing students, parents, and teachers, by orienting them to various aspects of mental wellness. We collaborate with the schools and work with them based on the requirements of the schools or throughout the academic year as well. Our program is based on the four foundation pillars which are: 

• Exploring self
• Interpersonal skills
• Dealing with emotions
• Understanding mental illnesses

Keeping in mind the four foundation pillars, we work towards enhancing children’s mental well-being which also caters to their academic, social, and overall well-being. Following is the breakdown of how we deliver our school mental health programs.
