EmpowerU, a mental health and resilience solution by Catapult Learning, has recently expanded its Tier 2 programming to better support students with subclinical mental health needs. This expansion includes the introduction of the new School-Led Group Support product, which aims to help schools address non-academic barriers like stress, anxiety, and low mood efficiently, without overburdening staff.

The flagship Tier 2 resilience program from EmpowerU successfully assisted over 30,000 students last year through personalized 1:1 coaching. Building on this success, the new School-Led Group Support program allows busy school counselors to utilize targeted tools to address specific student needs in areas such as friendships or emotional regulation. The program is designed for easy delivery and includes live dashboards for data collection and progress monitoring.

EmpowerU’s expanded Tier 2 offerings provide holistic and targeted support for students, with options ranging from skill-building interventions to comprehensive solutions for those facing more complex challenges. The program offers flexible delivery methods, including group-based support led by school staff or independent online learning. Real-time progress tracking through pre- and post-program evaluations enables school leaders to make data-driven decisions and track student improvement effectively.

By taking a preventative approach, EmpowerU helps schools intervene early to support students before issues escalate to more costly interventions. The program seamlessly integrates with the MTSS Student Support Hub, allowing educators to identify student needs, provide timely interventions, and collaborate with colleagues on progress and outcomes.

EmpowerU acknowledges the significant workload placed on school mental health professionals and aims to alleviate this burden with its Tier 2 suite. Both the Tier 2 Comprehensive Program and the School-Led Group Support offer efficient and high-impact solutions that integrate smoothly into existing frameworks. Over 90% of students who complete EmpowerU’s programs show measurable progress in emotional regulation, focus, and engagement, highlighting the effectiveness of the approach.

EmpowerU, as a leading provider of evidence-based programs, is committed to empowering students to overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. Through data-driven decision-making and a focus on delivering care alongside evidence-based practices, EmpowerU aims to transform student outcomes positively.
