The Foundation secured $1.2 million for the NVUSD Wellness Center Initiative, bringing student health centers to all 4 middle school campuses. All Napa middle school students now have on-site access to mental health and counseling services during or after school. This provides immediate intervention and treatment services to students in partnership with local providers such as Napa County Mental Health Services, Clinic Ole, Family Service, Aldea and COPE Family Center.
Each year, the Napa Valley Education Foundations hosts the Napa Valley Wellness Conference. With three days of invigorating and innovative breakouts, this conference attracts more than 300 attendees from across California and beyond! Learn more at www.NapaWellnessConference.org
The Foundation advocates for and helps fund physical education programs, including the K-3 PE Program, reinstating dedicated physical education teachers in elementary schools. Foundation funding provided and continues to provide proper equipment at all 20 elementary school sites for 8,300 children.
Napa Valley Education Foundation is the lead organization in the Napa Wellness Collaborative that is committed to building and sustaining Wellness Centers at all NVUSD school campuses. To support this endeavor, NVEF has established the Youth Wellness Fund to provide additional funding during times of natural disaster or emergency when the need for student mental health services spikes by as much as 50%. Proceeds from the Fund help to expand staff to provide an increased number of group and individual counseling sessions, health and wellness screenings and assistance with accessing resources for housing, transportation, food security and more.
