A Focus On Student Learning and Well-Being

Well-being is an essential foundation for learning. When students feel seen, understood, and valued as individuals and as part of a community, they are more likely to stay motivated and engaged in school. By backing researched-informed solutions, developing new tools, and partnering with diverse communities, CZI equips educators to provide all students with an education that supports both their academic achievement and well-being.
