Collective Well-Being Project
• Empower leaders to champion educator well-being
• Showcase well-being resources and materials
• Provide detailed case studies
Framework In Action
We adapted the US Surgeon General’s Workplace Mental Health & Well-Being Framework for Schools.

The Collective Well-Being Project Framework illustrates a vision of well-being in schools.
The framework is geared to school leaders and it explicitly enhances and complements their goals for their schools.
