Canadian research has found girls who were mentored were 2 times less likely to be depressed; boys and girls were 2 times and 3 times, respectively, less likely to have social anxiety and were 2 times less likely to exhibit conduct problems. This session will look at different forms of mentoring in schools, both formal and informal. Ideas will be shared on how to incorporate or enhance mentoring in your school to support student mental health and social emotional wellbeing.
