The K12 Mental Health & Wellness Market Report

Over the past several years, mental health and wellness has come to the fore across all major education sectors including early childhood, K-12, higher education, and workforce development.

Despite the critical impact on academics and well-being, about half of mental health needs go unserved

We are especially concerned about K-12 students, where mental health stressors can have a
lasting impact on academic performance and wellbeing. We heard these concerns first-hand
through scores of interviews with high school and college counselors, students, advocates, and
industry experts. The issues they raise are deeply concerning, citing students are:

  • Markedly less prepared for the rigors of career and college,
  • Entering higher education with lower proficiency in basic academic skills,
  • Demonstrating less effective study habits and lower confidence, and are
  • Less independent and more socially isolated – with students being described as less willing to engage with both peers and mentors either in-person or virtually.

The current K-12 mental health crisis shows no signs of abating and schools continue to struggle to staff positions related to mental health and wellness.

We have produced this report with the hope that it can help connect school districts and providers, spur discussion, and support more holistic and inclusive education.
