Allies in Mental Health Education (AMHE), a partnership between CESA 6 and CESA 7, is designed to grow existing knowledge and systems to better support students' overall mental wellness. The Allies in Mental Health Education Implementation Model brings the Wisconsin DPI's School Mental Health Framework to life via:

• Creating effective and systematic change
• Breaking down the stigma of mental health
• Embedding onsite coaching

Join us on the AMHE journey to tool up your school community (learner, family, school and community partners) by providing clarity, structure and implementation support to address mental health and wellness for ALL learners.

Let the adventure begin!

Allies in Mental Health Education is a two-year professional development opportunity combining both traditional professional development and monthly on-site coaching. It includes:

Each CESA will accept only 10 teams for the 2018-19 Cohort 1. See Guidelines for School Mental Health Team Selection. Teams will be selected by the end of May 2018.
