GRASSLANDS INNOVATIONS WELLNESS TEAM & HEALTH PROMOTION

OUR VISION

Belonging. Thriving. Contributing.

OUR MISSION

We build, nurture and maintain purposeful, positive & professional relationships with students, family, staff and community partners.

These relationships are characterized by;

  • Curiosity - We create space for the other person to share their experience, perspective and what is most meaningful for them.

  • Positive Regard - We believe in the inherent goodness of people, and the strengths, capabilities and potential they possess.

  • Acceptance - We actively practice acceptance, providing a safe space for people to be seen and heard for who they are.

  • Best Interest of the Child - We uphold each child’s right to agency, consistent with that child’s capacity and the rights of others. We recognize the importance of the child and family voice in our work together, and always seek to reach a consensus on what is most important and meaningful...their goals and hopes for themselves.

  • Empathy - We seek to understand what a person is experiencing from within their frame of reference, connecting in genuine human relationships with the people we serve.

Program Manager's Message

Make sure you reach out to a Wellness Mentor if you need to. We are here for you, especially during this time!

Stay healthy, stay safe and stay home!!
