Episode Details

The latest buzz in education circles is trauma-informed care, but too few educators really understand what that means or looks like in practice. Given what we know about trauma and its impact on our students, what needs to happen in our schools to support our students who have been impacted by trauma? We bring on trauma-educator Chavonne Taylor and social emotional learning director David Adams to explore trauma-informed practices. But first, we begin the episode with a review of recent education news about mental health training for teachers, political extremists as guest speakers, and a PE initiative that seems to have backfired.
