We hope this podcast helps us all to explore ideas, to learn from the past, and create dialog that may help keep our school communities safe. To keep our school communities as a place to learn and grow and become better.We will hear from educators, psychologists, social workers, law enforcement, manufacturers, legislators, victims of school violence, as well as other organizations dedicated to the safety of our school communities.We all must become part of the solution.
In this podcast we discuss the need for post trauma planning, building relationships with community resources, and the need for greater communication within school communities.
