Supporting a Peaceful and Calm Educational Space (SPACES)
Tuesday, April 4, 2023 from 3:30 pm – 3:45 pm
The Mental Health Association in NYS, Inc. (MHANYS) has released a new report to help schools support the emotional health needs of students, teachers, and staff. Supporting a Peaceful and Calm Educational Space (SPACES) was developed with funding from Otsuka Pharmaceutical Company and outlines six recommendations for creating “wellness spaces” in schools. Join us for a discussion with several NYS schools who are currently using wellness spaces as a way to help students develop and practice stress management skills. Our panel includes staff from Keene Central School District, Valley Central School District and Brooklyn Lab School.
