SUSTAINABLE school CULTURE?

Time is tight, a pandemic (still) rages, and your school has to do more for your team's wellness and satisfaction. Is there a way to make wellness sustainable? This program helps you deepen roots so your team can act immediately AND design the program you need for resilient growth in the seasons to come. 

2022 train-the-trainer INTRO program

Overview of Wellness program:

This program happens one time per month, plus additional coaching and action in between.   

  • Monthly 90-min training sessions (in English) covering our original Resource Toolkit (see below)
  • Coaching hours with Ty and Susan in between sessions
  • Data for informed decision making, gathered from teams and shared with leaders
  • Wellness Resource Toolkit including 100+ visuals (in English or Spanish, or both)
  • One-year membership with spark or Glo online fitness/meditation/yoga platforms (for each of the two participants).  Scroll down for more info on these.
  • 10% of the tuition comes BACK to you in April (as coordinator stipends or wellness funds)

Week of January 24-28 (site visits)

Habit Change (Personal Stress Prescription)

After just 90 minutes, you can immediately support your team by distributing the Personal Stress Prescription and encouraging self-care commitments. In January, we'll look at the neuroscience of habit change during a wintery pandemic where many of us must make changes both personally and in team management. We'll distribute the first chunk of wellness posters for Immune Boosting and Mindfulness. And we'll do site visits to do a wellness inventory and determine your training needs. 

February 21-25

Immune Boosting Choices

It's not enough to stay masked and distanced and vax'd. We must also support our immune systems to prevent infections of corona, cold and flu viruses. We developed lists of 12 natural, cheap, science-backed actions anyone can take to support their physical defenses. 

March 21-25

Wellness Equity (Stressor & Resilience Scorecard)

For organizations and schools grappling with DEI, our Scorecard is a personal assessment, measuring the impact of one's identity and circumstances. It can also be a tool for group discussion about "reframing" the stressors of our lives as opportunities for growth.  

This month, we will offer an optional circus workshop with visiting juggler and circus yogi Kevin O'Keefe.

April 25-29

Brain Boosters (BINGO)

Taking short breaks throughout the day is key to brain effectiveness, especially in busy schools and nonprofits. Our eight BINGO cards (four in English, four in Spanish) encourage individual quick breaks in a way that harnesses conversation and camaraderie on your team. In April, we will re-distribute 10% ($399) of the tuition BACK to participants/schools to support wellness efforts in planning for next year!

May 23-27

tools, testimonial & who should attend

Tool #1 (January)

Tool #1 (January)

Tool #1 (January)

The Personal Stress Prescription is a tool developed for self-reflection OR team discussion. In January we will describe different ways to use this tool, and the neuroscience of habit change. The roots in the background indicate the nourishment our bodies need to thrive. 

Tool #2 (February)

Tool #1 (January)

Tool #1 (January)

Here are specific, cheap ways to prevent sickness. We studied 12 science-backed steps to boost our  bodies' immune responses to prevent infection from flu, coronavirus, colds, new variants, and bacteria. Your team can use these lists in many ways to spur discussion and healthy habits.

Tool #3 (March)

Tool #1 (January)

Tool #3 (March)

This tool is used as a complement to DEI discussions, or as a stand-alone self-assessment.  We all have challenges, and it helps to look at them with a fresh mindset. The Scorecard includes branches, to represent the resilience that can develop when we reframe our stress. 

Tool #4 (April)

Testimonial (Train-the-Trainer)

Tool #3 (March)

Check our Instagram feed @NonprofitWellness for images and stories of Brain Boost BINGO in a bilingual school in Fall 2021. 


Four cards in both languages give a variety of quick breaks throughout the week (when we focus on our senses, it brings us back to the present moment).  


All of our resources are available for free on our "Resources" tab; in our trainings you learn how to use them best for YOUR team.

Testimonial (Train-the-Trainer)

Testimonial (Train-the-Trainer)

In 2021, we led a Train-the-Trainer program for a cohort of nonprofit and agency leaders in the Mid-Ohio Valley. 

"The train-the-trainer program we did with Ty & Susan was a great success!  With 11 organizations, we were able to begin the culture shift to one of Team-care based on monthly, science-based Nonprofit Wellness presentation and discussion.  We found that these organizations have created time, space and a budget for team wellness activities. It has become part of their regular routine."

- Amy Elliott, PhD, Nonprofits LEAD Director

Who should attend?

Testimonial (Train-the-Trainer)

Testimonial (Train-the-Trainer)

  • This program trains two humans from each organization or school. Ideally one is in administration or operations and one is a teacher or rising leader. 
  • The same two individuals should participate each month, however, if there are scheduling conflicts, a substitute can attend. 
  • Each participant may choose between a year's membership to Glo or spark (SEE BELOW), accessed on their own time.
