Abstract

This study explores the transformative potential of Intentional Learning Communities (ILCs) in supporting educators facing addiction. By integrating psychometric tools like the Multidimensional Addiction Behaviour Scale (MABS), which evaluates psychological, biological, social and environmental factors, cognitive and behavioral patterns, and motivation and readiness for change, ILCs provide personalized support that enhances mental health and professional growth. The research underscores the urgent need to prioritize educator well-being within the educational ecosystem. ILCs create a structured, empathetic environment that fosters recovery, resilience, and better educational outcomes. The study calls for robust institutional support to ensure the successful integration of ILCs, highlighting their broader positive impact on students, schools, and the overall educational landscape. The findings advocate for holistic approaches to building a healthier, more inclusive educational environment.
