At Teachers Life, our Member’s well-being is one of our top priorities. We are thrilled to announce our new and improved Member benefits program, Flourish+, made just for you. Focused on mental health and wellness, Flourish+ goes beyond the ordinary to support your well-being with enhanced, meaningful, complimentary healthy living benefits, rebates, awards and giving back.  

Based on valuable feedback from our Education Member Community, we’ve collaborated to curate a benefits program that supports your mental health at every step. From the $100 Annual Healthy Living Rebate to the Press Start CoLab Program promoting impactful change in mental health amongst Canadian youth, each enhancement directly reflects our Members’ shared experiences and aspirations. Flourish+ is here to elevate your Member experience, foster meaningful community connections, and provide mental health and wellness tools and resources – our commitment to your holistic well-being.

 

Why New Benefits?

At the heart of Flourish+ are our Members. Back in April 2023, we held a series of collaborative sessions with our Members to truly understand their needs for mental health and wellness benefits. After several months, we developed these new and exciting initiatives to bring their aspirations to life.   

 Recognizing the unique challenges faced by education workers, Flourish+ is a meaningful response to the disproportionate mental health adversities in the education community. We aimed to focus these benefits on the most pressing topic today. Mental health remains a crucial priority, especially for demanding occupations such as those amongst education workers.  

To foster the mental health and wellness of all, our nowly Members will also have access to many of our incredible Flourish+ benefits, including the $100 Healthy Living Rebate.
