Join the conversation starting Monday, with a live Twitter chat on the topic next Wednesday! #DebriefTraumaGrief
The more traumatic events and corresponding stress that a child faces, the more likely they are to suffer negative long-term consequences. On Monday, we explore childhood trauma – what it is, what causes it, and how to prevent or mitigate its effects. #DebriefTraumaGrief

We cannot look at mental wellbeing as something to do, if there’s time. We need to make it the foundation on which we’re building academic support & recovery. We have to address where students are emotionally before we access bandwidth for learning.

The Biden administration has a plan to make mental health a crucial part of the school environment. Read more here.

A new study shows that training on social justice and race equity is important to ensuring that mentors can provide racial/ethnic support to youth. https://t.co/gcMhbLbhTh Do you train your mentors on cultural humility and social justice? Tell us about it!

Using a student's or a mentee's given or preferred name is critical to making him or her feel seen and accepted.
It sounds like you have good intentions, but it's helpful to reflect on the power and importance of learning to say someone's name. https://t.co/6fbfrQovO3
