Shownotes

In need of a little infusion of hope? Dr. Kate Storey shares her work on LINKing together people and organizations to support healthy school communities across Canada. This conversation dives into how we can work together to enact Canada’s National Healthy School Standards and how we can empower teachers to use these national standards to advocate for “higher-level support,” meaning time, resources, and funding from their school boards and provincial ministries. It gives them the data and vocabulary to say, “This isn’t just my idea; this is national best practice”. We talk about listening tours, uplifting the voices of students and teachers, celebrating progress, and LINKing together to amplify our individual actions and drive systems-level change. Spend 39 minutes with us and join the conversation.
