Access to effective mental health treatments and professionals represents a pervasive problem. However, in the settings where harsh political, social, and economic conditions would seem to represent a total impasse, one can find compelling local examples of social innovation.  There are individuals and groups that operate effectively in contexts characterized by adversity and severe resource limitations and who catalyze social capital around solutions that are sustainable – individuals who might be considered social entrepreneurs.
This innovation seeks to catalyze and cultivate successful social entrepreneurism to address mental health by exploring two questions:

  1. Can a core, common set of implementation and program delivery characteristics be identified in the work of social entrepreneurs dealing with  in mental health ?
  2. Can these core characteristics of social innovation be integrated with business and technological innovation to create a strategy that will enhance similar work in other contexts?

  • Definition:  
  • Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. 
  •  Mental illness, also called mental health disorders, refers to a wide range of mental health conditions — disorders that affect your mood, thinking and behavior. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety, disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders and addictive behaviors.

Due to media stereotypes and lack of education, and that people tend to attach negative stigmas to mental health conditions at a far higher rate than to other diseases and disabilities, such as cancer, diabetes, or heart disease. Mental health affects not only the number seeking treatment but impacts the number of resources available for proper treatment. Stigma and misinformation can feel like overwhelming obstacles for someone who is struggling with a mental health condition. Showing individuals respect and acceptance removes a significant barrier to successfully coping with their illness.

Based on the science of Positive Psychology, Positive Education aims to enable individuals and communities to flourish. Positive relationships, positive emotions, positive health, positive engagement, positive accomplishment, and positive purpose. That's a lot of positivity! The framework comes to life at the school on four levels: 'learn it,' 'live it,' 'teach it,' and 'embed it.' From the outset, the school has prioritized student and staff wellbeing through transformational educational programs, and through innovation and research in the field of Positive Education.
