EDUCATION
Maverick Mental Wellness
Maverick Mental Wellness was created as a student resource to support the campus community through both in-person programming and online access via D2L Brightspace. This initiative began after a student government resolution called for the creation of an online mental health training module.
The module remains available year-round, allowing students to revisit campus resources and support services whenever needed. Since its launch, Maverick Mental Wellness has been adopted by the Phi Delta Theta fraternity and expanded to reach more than 300 campuses nationwide.
School Mental Health
Framework
CultureChange’s School Mental Health Framework is designed for district administrators seeking to strengthen students' social-emotional learning (SEL) environment in grades K–12. The objective of this framework is to provide a comprehensive, scalable approach to implementing mental health curriculum alongside resources that support key learning targets.
The framework prioritizes the use of mental health screening tools and encourages policy development to create sustainable, system-wide improvements in student well-being.

B414 (before fourteen)
The B414 Mental Health Curriculum is a K–12 program developed by CultureChange and aligned with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Health Education Standards. This curriculum has been implemented in schools across Minnesota, including St. Paul, New Prague, Faribault, Mendota Heights, Mankato, and beyond, demonstrating its adaptability across diverse school communities.
A key component of the B414 curriculum is its emphasis on teacher choice and in-person engagement. Educators are empowered to tailor lessons to meet the unique needs of their students while fostering meaningful, face-to-face conversations that build social and emotional skills in a collaborative classroom environment.
The curriculum includes pre-made, customizable presentations and content designed to support instruction at every level, along with an additional presentation aligned with the professional development curriculum. These resources are reusable and designed to seamlessly integrate with the broader CC school framework.
The B414 Mental Health Curriculum is rooted in the understanding that most mental health disorders begin before the age of 14. This research-driven foundation emphasizes the importance of early intervention and proactive education, ensuring students are equipped with the tools, language, and support they need during their most formative years.
