Rest & Recharge Opportunity from Nellie Mae Education Foundation

As back-to-school season launches, the Nellie Mae Education Foundation and HealHaus @School are continuing our partnership together in providing 100 deserving K-12 public school educators and administrators (principals, counselors, teachers, etc.), in New England, with HealHaus @Home online memberships. Educators will gain access to classes and workshops live online 7 days a week including yoga, meditation, sound baths, and so much more.

We recognize that educators always deserve healing and rest as a lifestyle and not just an experience, so it is our hope that this year-long membership will build supportive tools and practices.

In recent years especially, the classroom has become a contested battleground, often leaving educators and students caught in the crossfire of ideological battles. From book bans to attacks on curricula, the politics of education is steadily creeping out of legislative halls, and into the halls of our schools. This has put immense strain on educators who want to be able to focus on their jobs — educating and caring for students. Knowing this, Nellie Mae is committed to offering support for educators in and out of the classroom.

With that in mind, the Foundation welcomes deserving New England educators who are interested in joining a healing and wellness-centered community, to apply for a free, year-long online membership with HealHaus.
