Brave Learners
The Brave Learners Program is an outreach inter-ministry program between the Surrey School District and Child & Youth Mental Health (CYMH) that supports the development of anxiety management strategies for elementary students in the Surrey School District. The school can initiate the referral process, but must first have the support of CYMH. The program is divided into two streams of support based on the students' needs. The Cool Kids Stream of programming focuses on learning anxiety management skills and strategies through the Cool Kids curriculum delivered by CYMH in a virtual group therapy setting. The Selective Mutism Stream of programming is based on the Selective Mutism Treatment Protocol by Kelty Mental Health Resource Centre and BC Children’s Hospital to help the students use their brave voice. Each stream of programming runs for one term, either beginning in October or March. Contact Brave Learners Teacher/Program Coordinator at bravelearners@surreyschools.ca for referral submission deadlines.
