Stop Wondering, Start Knowing: A Mental Health Video Resource for Schools
The “Stop Wondering, Start Knowing” resource was created in 2014 and updated in 2018. It was originally created in response to requests for youth speakers on mental health topics in schools.
Over the last ten years, our Kelty Health Promotion and Schools Team has evolved our approach to stay in line with best available evidence. Research shows that there are many components to supporting school mental health. Taking a holistic, whole school community approach that considers policies, environment and social factors in addition to mental health literacy, social emotional learning, staff and student well-being needs can make a big impact.
In line with this approach, the school video resource will be discontinued on July 31, 2025 and in its place, we encourage school staff to access resources and information on Mental Health Literacy Resources and Curriculum for the Classroom | Kelty Mental Health and to learn more about Our Approach to Supporting Schools | Kelty Mental Health
Please feel free to contact us at schoolmentalhealth@cw.bc.ca with any questions, or for support with choosing mental health promotion programs.
