Using Principles of Neuroplasticity to Create Optimal Learning Environments

The U.S. National Library of Medicine has selected the CDC-sponsored Tools for Supporting Emotional Wellbeing in Children and Youth for its historical collections. These free resources, grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy, provide practical skills for managing stress, such as belly breathing and mindfulness, available in English and Spanish. The tools are presented through engaging videos and PDF comics, offering valuable support to children, youth, and caregivers.

The Cultural Inclusiveness and Equity Well-being Information and Strategies for Educators (CIE-WISE) is a free 3-part training program designed to help educators support students from historically underrepresented racial and ethnic communities. The training, which includes an online course, video library, and resource collection, aims to address social injustices and educator biases that impact student mental health. This resource is particularly highlighted during National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month in July.
