The Power to Thrive series is a new mental health resource developed by The Bridge Leadership Academy and Dr. Chantele Ferguson. Three kid-friendly brochures cover three topics: Stress, Mindfulness, and Mindset. In addition, stickers of each subject direct readers via a QR code to view the material in a digital format.

The Potential Impact

Power to Thrive is designed to be a conversation starter. Our hope is that providing palatable information about these topics will encourage schools, community spaces, and anywhere that works with children to talk with young people about their mental health. The content can be read individually by a student, but works best when read with a trusted adult. School counselors could use these tools to reinforce strategies they already teach, such as self-regulating breathing methods, centering methods, meditation practices, and conflict resolution.
