In addition, mental health needs of teachers may be similar to those faced by students
![Page 17: Schoolmentalhealth 090526112700-phpapp02-5](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558a2322d8b42a1f788b46df/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
“On-site” mental health models can also provide teacher support

Stigma is the polite word for discrimination
It pervades our entire social structure
Integrating mental health education in schools may help destigmatize mental illness
![Page 21: Schoolmentalhealth 090526112700-phpapp02-5](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558a2322d8b42a1f788b46df/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
