A couple weeks ago I had a conversation with Ms. Moore about how to ensure the mental wellness of Emma students. We spoke about how to get students to incorporate mindfulness into their daily routines, and also spoke about how it might be possible help educate students about mental wellness in health classes. She is currently going in to the sophomore health class to give students statistics about mental illness, and I think it would be very good to include information about the resources available on campus for students.
We have a tentative plan to meet again to discuss how I could get involved in the process of perhaps updating the mental health curriculum, and I have asked Ms. Moore if she would like to be my mentor as well. I will update my blog with news about this!
