About Becoming U Wellness Education
Every student deserves access to wellness education. We're now inviting our founding partner schools to make research-based wellness education accessible to every school, educator, and family.
About
Becoming U Wellness Education was founded on a fundamental belief: wellness education is essential, not optional. Every student deserves access to the skills that help them thrive emotionally, socially, and academically — regardless of their school's budget or location.
Founded by Jackie Sweeney, M.Ed., a licensed school social worker, masters-level clinician, and crisis clinician with 10+ years in K–12 education, our organization creates research-based wellness education resources that are accessible to every school, educator, and family. We believe emotional wellbeing and academic success are deeply interconnected.
Our wellness education framework is grounded in educational research and real-world practice. Every resource has been carefully designed to align with CASEL's evidence-based competencies while remaining practical and implementable in diverse educational settings — from urban public schools to rural districts.
We exist to help schools strengthen emotional wellness, resilience, relationships, social-emotional development, and student success through research-based educational resources and implementation tools. Our work supports educators, school counselors, administrators, families, and students — and we welcome founding partner schools as we grow.
