Teacher Training

CAUSE: TEACHER TRAINING

Introduction:

Train A Child Ideas is dedicated to promoting the mental health and well-being of children. We believe that every child deserves access to the resources and support they need to thrive, including support from the adults who work with them. Unfortunately, many schools and community organizations do not have the policies, practices, training, or resources to prioritize the mental health of children or intervene early when needed. That is why we are working to encourage the implementation of mental health policies and practices that prioritize children's well-being and to provide training and resources for teachers, coaches, and other adults who work with children to recognize and respond to mental health challenges.

Objective

Our objective is to empower schools and community organizations to implement mental health policies and practices that prioritize the well-being of children and promote early intervention. We aim to provide online training courses, resources, and tools for teachers, coaches, and other adults who work with children, designed to help them recognize the signs of mental health challenges, provide appropriate support and guidance, and connect children and families with the resources they need to address their mental health needs. We want to equip these adults with the knowledge and skills they need to support children's mental health and well-being, and to create a culture of emotional intelligence, self-care, and mental wellness for children and families. <

You can also sponsor teacher training for a particular school or local government area. Your sponsorship can cover the costs of training teachers and other school staff in mental health awareness, recognition, and response. Topics will include child development, identification of learning disabilities, and red flags for mental health disorders. This training can help teachers and staff members recognize when a child may be struggling with a mental health issue or learning disability and provide appropriate support and resources.
