OUR INITIATIVES
The Center for Educational Improvement (CEI), in collaboration with Yale University Department of Psychiatry’s Program for Recovery and Community Health (Yale PRCH) is establishing a nationwide network of educational leaders trained in Compassionate School Practices (CSPs) through the Compassionate Schools Leadership Academy (CSLA).
Coalition
for the
Future of Education
Yale University’s Program for Recovery and Community Health (PRCH), in partnership with CEI, designed the Childhood-Trauma Learning Collaborative (C-TLC) to strengthen mental health supports that address the needs of children who have experienced/are at risk of experiencing significant trauma in the New England region.
We launched our Coalition for the Future of Education to lend our voice, networks, and compassionate school model to learning communities striving toward equitable access, opportunities, and resources for traditionally underrepresented communities. Our Coalition highlights our commitment to diversity and inclusion and is the embodiment of our Heart Centered Learning framework.
Join our HeartMind Community to understand more about seamlessly weaving mindfulness and heart centered learning throughout your school day.
Sign up to receive our monthly e-News, book discounts, tip sheets, and opportunities to network with peers to build student resiliency.
OUR FOCUS AND RESEARCH
CEI identifies, researches, shares, and applies compassionate school mental health practices.
Our goal is to accelerate the adoption and implementation of evidence-based practices that address the holistic needs of students and staff. We guide educators as they create a culture and context for students to become enthusiastic lifelong learners. We also offer practical solutions that help elementary and secondary teachers, principals, school psychologists, and other school staff reduce stress and symptoms of burnout, anxiety, and depression, including the vicarious trauma that affects many educators and school staff. Learn more about our focus and research areas.
