BREAK FREE FROM DEPRESSION PROGRAM | OVERVIEW

Break Free from Depression is a project within the Boston Children's Hospital
Neighborhood Partnerships Program (BCHNP) in the Department of Psychiatry and
Behavioral Sciences at Boston Children's Hospital.


OUR CURRICULUM

Break Free from Depression (BFFD) is a four-module curriculum focused on
increasing awareness about adolescent depression and designed for use in high
school classrooms. The goals are to increase adolescents' awareness about
depression, teach them how to recognize it in themselves and in their friends,
and give them strategies for finding help. This curriculum is now available
online (more information is below). Included in the materials are step-by-step
directions, handouts, resources, and all of the presentations for the student
curriculum, parent workshop, and staff development workshop.


DOCUMENTARY



Break Free from Depression also features a compelling documentary (trailer
above) that focuses on a diverse group of adolescents talking about their
struggles with depression and suicide. We learn about their symptoms, how their
lives were impacted, and the methods they used for coping with depression
through their own words. They are not actors, and the documentary is not
scripted. We chose this storytelling technique so that youth are able to learn
about symptoms and recognize their impact through their peers’ own words. The
documentary also addresses hope. The adolescents in the film do not only share
their distress, but also ways they found help and relief, and the skills they
have learned to manage depression.


ONLINE TRAINING

Break Free from Depression, in partnership with OPENPediatrics, has developed a
series of training videos to share the BFFD train-the-trainer workshop and
materials with educators and school communities nationally.

All of our curriculum’s four modules are presented in this video series. They
focus on how educators can facilitate the Break Free from Depression program in
their school or community program to help increase awareness about adolescent
depression among high school students. After viewing the videos and completing
the post survey, you will have access to all of the online materials so you can
implement the Break Free from Depression curriculum in your school or community
program.

This online training is part of the Training and Access Project (TAP) Online
series, which provides free online courses for educators and school communities
everywhere.

   Register at OPENPediatrics   

You will be prompted to sign up to OPENPediatrics and asked to fill a brief
registration form before accessing the free content. After this one-time
registration, you will be able to access all of our courses, including Break
Free from Depression.

If you would like more information about the Break Free from Depression
train-the-trainer video series, please contact us.
