Relationship Mapping and Mental Health Initiative

Join our simple, strategic, and research-based Relationship Mapping and Mental Health Initiative to increase connection, belonging, and positive youth mental health in your school.

Making Caring Common’s Relationship Mapping and Mental Health Initiative promotes positive youth mental health by ensuring that all students are connected to at least one adult in their school. Schools in the initiative will utilize a simple strategy to identify students who may not have any positive relationships with adults at school and work to foster trusting adult relationships with those students. Participation in the initiative is free.

All participating schools will also receive free access to new, low-lift, evidence-based mental health-related classroom resources and virtual training for adults in the school community, including parents and caregivers.
