While one in five children has a mental health or learning disorder, less than a third of teachers say they feel equipped to meet their students’ mental health needs. Those numbers need to change, and the Child Mind Institute can help.
Our Student Success Webinar Program provides evidence-based, actionable strategies to help educators to better identify and respond to children who struggle. Offered on-demand, our webinars can be viewed at any time.
For educators in New York State, we are an approved sponsor of continuing teacher and leader education credits (CTLE’s). Each hour of training provides 1 CTLE credit.
