Teacher well-being is a significant area of interest for the Association. There is an increasing interest by teachers in activities that are related to teacher wellness (i.e., not “professional development”, but designed to support teachers’ mental health and wellness).
The intent of “personal development funds” is to provide members with access to a fund that can be used in a multitude of ways to support their interests, hobbies, or recreation – and thereby supporting their mental health.
The key to this program is the element of choice – members would be able to access activities or materials that are relevant to their own needs and interests. Personal development opportunities can be as unique as every individual.
