NeuroArts in Our Schools
August 30, 2024
The Palm Beach County School District’s Department of Behavioral and Mental Health provided a Summer Institute for our 180 school behavioral health professionals, focusing on how
the neuroarts contribute to mental health and well-being.
This focus was influenced by Palm Health Foundation and the Palm Beach County NeuroArts Collaborative. We supported the Summer Institute, and purchased Your Brain on Art books for all school behavioral health professionals.
Supporting neuroarts learning ties into our work to advance brain health, in our county and beyond.

These Community Connectors are deeply trusted and have helped their communities navigate complex health challenges – like when one neighbor didn’t know what to do when her husband was admitted to a nursing home as his dementia worsened.
