The Adults We Forgot: Why the People Closest to Your Highest-Need Students Get the Least Support - and How to Fix It
This line up of veteran educators is bringing us the best that Trauma-Sensitive Schools have to offer! In addition to the Plenary session and 7 workshops in the Schools/Education Track, there will be networking sessions, coffee chats with speakers and 30-minute breakouts all designed with educators in mind. Plus attendees have 30 days to watch recordings from the other tracks of the conference.
