Edgewater Collective is partnering Khesed Wellness to offer free mental health and wellness sessions for teachers and staff in the Jefferson Area schools. Teaching during the pandemic and managing remote classrooms along with in-person classes is taking its toll on teachers and school staff.

We need to care for those who are investing in our students. 

You can partner with us to support teachers by donating $60 to cover the first session for an area teacher. Click here to donate.

This program will start in November with teachers and staff from Jefferson Junior/Senior High School and then roll out to Edgewater Elementary, Lumberg Elementary and Molholm Elementary in December.
