Kids Help Phone is Canada’s only 24/7 e-mental health service offering free, multilingual, and confidential support to help all young people.

They have developed a program that can be used by educators to support mental health in the classroom. Their Counsellor in the Classroom program promotes the discussion of mental health and well-being among young people.

They offer one module for elementary students, “Mental Health and Help Seeking” (Grades 4-12). The module is divided into two parts. The first includes classroom activities led by the teacher. The second includes a 45-minute phone or video call conversation between the class and one of KHP’s professional counsellors.
