Summer Institute


Summer Institute for Catholic Educational Leadership

Mental Health and Spiritual Wellbeing for Ourselves and Those We Serve 
June 3-4, 2024

Register Now!

Mark your calendar to attend the Summer Institute on June 3-4, 2024. The daily sessions run until 3:30 pm on both days.

The emphasis on self-care is too often sidelined as religious educators and administrators dutifully prioritize the well-being of their students and colleagues. Though noble in intent, consistently placing care for others before care for oneself can indirectly exacerbate mental health struggles. As the saying goes, we cannot pour from an empty cup. This year's Summer Institute offers participants an opportunity to explore the intersection of faith and mental health and to learn effective strategies for cultivating personal resilience while also supporting students' emotional and spiritual growth. 

As a result of attending the Summer Institute, you will

  • consider how self care helps us to serve God more fully

  • better understand the relationship between service and self-care

  • identify immediate changes you can make to foster your own and others' well-being

  • be empowered to serve your communities with wisdom and joy
