​Mental Health / Well-being Critical to Learning

- resources to cope with isolation -

Learning at Home has its challenges, but the isolation necessary during the COVID-19 emergency is also testing everyone's emotions and mental well-being.

The Greater Essex County District School Board has created a resource to support students and their families during this unprecedented experience called Supporting Us All through COVID-19.

This site, located on our website, www.publicboard.ca has podcasts created by members of the Board's psychology and social work staff, videos, links to resources and weekly activities to support mental health and well-being.

There is also a questionnaire for students and family members to determine what the concerns and issues are for individuals, which will guide the future content of the site.
