MindOneSix is an evidence-informed mental wellness curriculum designed for youth ages 12–24. The program equips participants with the knowledge, skills, and practical tools needed to engage in meaningful conversations about mental health, resilience, and help-seeking behaviors.

How it Works

Through eight interactive lessons, MindOneSix builds a strong foundation in mental wellness while strengthening social-emotional learning skills. Participants engage in workbook activities, guided discussions, and peer-to-peer learning experiences that encourage self-awareness, resilience, and positive mental health practices.

Facilitator Training

Organizations send team members to be trained as facilitators in the MindOneSix curriculum. We offer customizable training length and location to meet the needs of your individual organization; in-person is preferred, but we offer virtual training upon request. The cost of facilitator training is $2,500 per person. Scholarships, funding assistance, and group rates may be available.

“I really appreciate the thoughtfulness of this curriculum and just the intentionality of what it feels like to be a kid… it is for every kid… and the thought and intent behind the lessons… my mom heart, my teacher heart, my mental health heart felt just so moved by it… I haven’t seen curriculum this thoughtful.“

"MindOneSix has been an incredible tool for supporting the mental health and wellness of both our students and staff. It has opened a bridge for meaningful communication between teachers and students, especially for students with disabilities, while helping every student recognize their strengths and identify opportunities for growth in their overall well-being."
