SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT
The wellbeingbc.ca website would not have been possible without the support of Dr. Kimberly Schonert-Reichl from the University of British Columbia and the contributions of the experts and the school staff, parents, and students who are featured in the videos. By sharing their personal stories, passion, and expertise, they helped create a resource that can be used to translate our vision of promoting childhood health and well-being with other educators throughout the province of BC, and around the world.
