The book includes first-hand stories and experiences collaborating with school teams as they work with, support and program for students from around the globe displaying a wide variety of mental health concerns. The student stories embrace mental health-related concerns such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, suicidal ideations, among others, and outline inclusive strategies school staff can facilitate and scaffold with students that builds their resiliency, social-emotional / healthy relationship skills, and supports healthy healing and a path to recovery.
This revolutionary and inclusive approach to understanding mental health is exactly what every educator needs to best serve their students. With a global and story-rich portrayal of mental health, Dr. Keith and Dr. Maich invite educators to be reflective and reflexive in their understanding and support of the mental health of students from diverse backgrounds. The presentation of stories in this book amplifies student voice and humanizes the student experience in a way that fosters empathy and understanding, especially towards students with identities that differ from the host community to which they belong. -- Najwa Zebian, Bestselling Author, Educator
