Comprehensive School Safety Planning: Prevention Through Recovery:

ESC Title IV, Part A will cover the cost of the session; there is no cost to the district.

Join ESC19 as we welcome Ben Fernandez, MS,Ed. to learn how to establish and sustain comprehensive school safety and crisis prevention and preparedness efforts. With updated research and strategies, this workshop makes a clearer connection between ongoing school safety and crisis preparedness. It also emphasizes the unique needs and functions of school teams and the steps involved in developing these teams, including a model that integrates school personnel and community provider roles. The PREPaRE model builds on existing personnel, resources, and programs, and can be adapted to individual school needs and size. Finally, the workshop explores how to prepare for school crises by developing, exercising, and evaluating safety and crisis plans. This workshop is an excellent course for mental health and educational professionals working at all grade levels in your district who help establish a safe school climate and respond to crises.
