Healing Our Education Communities

Coming Together to Heal Our Educator Workforce

The Healing Our Education Communities program is a restorative experience designed for teachers, social workers, paraprofessionals, therapists, and coaches to step away from daily demands and focus on their well-being. Through guided practices, peer connection, and a supportive environment, participants gain tools to manage stress, reconnect with themselves, and build lasting resilience. Offered at no cost and supported by generous donors and partners, this program honors the essential work of education professionals by helping them return to their roles grounded, renewed, and better equipped to support their communities.

An Urgent Need for Support

Nearly 25% of teachers are considering leaving their jobs—well above the pre-pandemic turnover rate of 16%. Burnout, compassion fatigue, secondary trauma, and disempowerment are on the rise, with 44% of educators reporting they often or always feel depleted. The demands of the job, combined with daily stress and anxiety, require specialized healing and support.

The Healing Our Education Communities program provides the space, tools, and guidance educators need to recover, reconnect, and build resilience. Through expert-led sessions and peer support, participants restore well-being and sustain their vital work with renewed energy.
