A Conference Made with You in Mind!

Join us for the Caring for Every Mind Conference, a day dedicated to nurturing the well-being of students and educators alike. Through engaging sessions, expert insights, and hands-on strategies, we’ll explore ways to support student behavior, strengthen mental health, and prioritize staff wellness. This conference is your opportunity to recharge, reflect, and reconnect—so you can head into summer feeling refreshed and return to the classroom in August with a renewed sense of purpose and positivity. Because when we care for every mind, we create the best possible future for our students and ourselves.

This is the first conference that I have been to in a long time that provided me with so much new information that is meaningful to myself and to my career!

Great information to bring back to campus staff! I feel as we are always trying to put out fires when teachers or staff can make some little differences to keep the behavior from even happening!
