A Focus On Student Well-Being

Mental well-being is an essential foundation for learning. COVID-19 caused unprecedented disruption and stress for more than 50 million students, their families, and their teachers. As schools and communities rebuild, attending to the social emotional well-being of children must be our priority. At CZI, we are committed to accelerating a whole child approach to learning that integrates what we know about the science of human development and learning into education.
