Your Teacher’s Resource Providing Easy Access to Mental Health Curricula and Programs for Delivery to Students
About Mental Health Instruction.org
This website is a non-commercial endeavor to help bring Mental Health Education to schools across the United States and beyond. As a society, we have now agreed physical health and mental health are not separate within healthcare and efforts are underway to bring parity between the two healthcare realms. With that, we seek to bring the same parity to education and create a world where Physical Health and Mental Health curricula are taught hand in hand.
Our Vision
Where every struggling youth is surrounded by peers equipped with a supportive and effective knowledge base
- That all youth are equipped with comprehensive knowledge and resources in Mental Health.
- To realize the rapid reduction and eventual elimination of Stigma, a reduction of suicide ideation and a speedier track to seeking care.
- To enable a future where every struggling youth is surrounded by peers equipped with a supportive and effective knowledge base.
Our Mission
Providing schools with quick reference resources to mental health education
- Offering implementation plans specific to each listing in aiding smooth, clear execution of curricula and program choices.
- To provide a free library for all school staff that have interest in bringing Mental Health Education into their school.
- Creating a comprehensive library that includes all mental health resources, ie. Social Emotional Learning, Mental Health Literacy, Substance Use Disorder education, Suicide Prevention programs and emerging Social Media & Mental Health programs.
