The Holistic Life Foundation (HLF) through its Mindful Moments program provides schools the opportunity to address climate and culture through a multi-tiered approach. The program is currently active in 23 schools and serves 3700 students throughout Baltimore. All students attending HLF schools receive the tier one supports by participating in the daily meditations and engaging in the classroom push in services provided by the mindfulness coaches. The most intensive, tier three students are able to self-refer or be directed by a teacher to report to the Mindful Moments room where they have time and space to decompress, cool down, talk to a caring adult, and ultimately return to the classroom better prepared to learn. The mindfulness practice, forwarded by the Holistic Life team equips students with much needed coping, relaxation, and centering techniques that can be employed universally, both inside and outside of the school setting.
Students in the iMentor program receive classes preparing them for college and career access during the school day via a weekly course that is facilitated by an iMentor’s school-based program manager. Through their iMentor classes, each student works to develop an individualized Post-Secondary Pathway (PSP). iMentor participants leverage high-impact mentoring relationships to explore careers, become competitive for jobs, secure employment, and succeed in a targeted profession.
