CARE

Cultivating Awareness and Resilience in EducationA unique professional development program that helps teachers handle their stress and rediscover the joys of teaching. CARE was developed by Patricia Jennings, Christa Turksma and Richard C. Brown with support from the Garrison Institute. The goal of CARE is to meet the specific needs of K-12 teachers. CARE offers teachers and administrators tools and resources for reducing stress, preventing burnout, enlivening teaching and helping students thrive socially, emotionally and academically. We offer a four-day retreat at the Garrison Institute, a series of weekend sessions or a three-day model with follow-up.

RESEARCH

Since it was developed in 2007, CARE has been studied in a series of rigorous studies examining the impacts of CARE on teacher, classroom and student outcomes. The results of this research have been published in 5 peer-reviewed journal articles. These include the results of both quantitative and qualitative analyses.

“CARE for teachers was a profound experience…I deepened my listening skills, which has allowed me to be less reactive both personally and professionally. I also came to know myself better through this program…I wish all teachers would consider CARE for their personal well being in these stressful times and to help the children they inspire. It was a life changing experience.”
