As schools continue to think about how they can positively impact the mental health of their students, they should also consider the mental health of the staff supporting those students. In this episode, our host and Program Director of School and Justice Initiatives, Christopher Chun-Seeley, MSW, sits down with the Director of the APA Foundation's Center for Workplace Mental Health, Darcy Gruttadaro, JD. The two discuss how school leaders can better support staff's mental health and well-being and how staff can recognize when their colleagues might need support.
