What is a promising practice?
A promising practice is an initiative that shows potential as a result of its planning, implementation, results and evaluation. The promising practices available at Teach Resiliency are from the Share2Care mental health activation campaign. These initiatives have been assessed by a committee of reviewers and have been identified as quality initiatives that can be considered for replication across the country.

Each promising practice includes the following sections:
• Background
• Initiative details
• Impact
• Sustainability
• Modifications
Promising practices can be initiatives that target students, teachers, or both. They can also be initiatives implemented within a school community or district-wide. By sharing promising practices, our hope is to provide school communities with accessible, affordable, and practical initiatives to support the mental health of all.
