Young people who have experienced trauma and toxic stress often have difficulty regulating their emotional responses when facing challenges in school, life, and relationships
The Dibble Institute is pleased to introduce Mind Matters, a new curriculum to help young people begin to say, I am not a victim of what happened to me.
Mind Matters - 12 one-hour lessons teach participants to respond to negative experiences with innovative methods based on current neuroscience. Students learn to address their physical, relational, and mental needs.
The skills taught in Mind Matters are designed to be practiced over a lifetime. The curriculum is not meant to be group therapy or to replace psychotherapy. Rather, it is intended to be facilitated by paraprofessionals to inspire, uplift, and set young people on the journey of healing as they cultivate deeper resilience.
Pre-order your copy of Mind Matters before June 30th to save 20%. The program kit will ship by early August.
