Supporting Stressed Students During COVID-19

Presented by Jen Alexander, M.A., NCC, SB-R

This year, the return to school will be especially stressful for your students—like the adults in their lives, they’ve spent the summer navigating fears about the pandemic and struggling with other adversities such as social isolation and the ongoing trauma of racism. As schools reopen, what feelings and needs should educators prepare to notice and address in their students as a result of these stressors? And how can educators work together to respond to students in ways that help everyone feel safe and ready to learn? Get practical answers in this webinar from experienced educator and trauma expert Jen Alexander, author of the bestselling book Building Trauma-Sensitive Schools and the timely new ebook Supporting Students and Staff After COVID-19.
