GRIT™ Curriculum
Grief Resilience Inspires Triumph
A secondary school upstream curriculum from Hearts of Hope designed to help middle and high school students build resilience, empathy, confidence, and empowerment.
Our young people are not alright, and the statistics are alarming. Developed by a team of experts in mental health, education, and healthcare, GRIT™ Curriculum aligns with state educational standards and practices.
GRIT™ Curriculum aims to equip educators and their students with essential tools to handle life’s challenges with resilience and strength. This program creates a space where participants develop coping strategies to face loss with compassion, resilience, and growth.
HOW IT WORKS
The GRIT™ Curriculum program is offered in five 45-minute segments and can be offered throughout the school year as you designate. Hearts of Hope professionals train your staff through hands-on learning, discussion, and practice. This “teach the teacher” approach prepares your professionals to implement this turnkey program effectively.
