TIERED SUPPORTS WORKSHOP
Creating layers of care for students impacted by trauma
August 15, 2022:
9:00 AM - 4:30 PM CST
About the event
As schools gain awareness of the impacts of historical trauma, systemic racism, food and housing insecurity as well as individual trauma, more educators are looking for answers to the question of how schools can better support students.
This training will focus on creating systems that develop the capacity of staff to approach student needs in a way that is child-centered, affirming and culturally respectful using trauma as a lens.
Designed for teams to rethink how they support students to give students what they need to be successful at school, while simultaneously reducing discipline actions, encouraging positive school culture and increasing a sense of efficacy for both staff and students.
This full day workshop will walk you through a step-by-step process for implementation of a tiered supports system at your site.
The Tiered Supports Workshop will review concepts and demonstrate processes needed to develop a system of supports that meets the needs of all students. You'll walk away feeling empowered, with a menu of intervention strategies and an understanding of how to match interventions with student behaviors.
This workshop will walk you through a step by step process of creating a layered system of supports in your building to support the needs of ALL students.
Through this full day workshop, participants will:
Develop a system of supports to meet the needs of students impacted by trauma.

Meet the universal needs of all students to build relationships and regulate their physiological state.
Develop a menu of supports that are matched to student's needs.
