About 1 in 4 school-aged children has experienced a traumatic event that can profoundly affect their development. The pandemic has placed increased pressure on schools to provide mental health support to students, while many teachers and staff report needing more training to recognize and respond to student needs.

Join our lively discussion moderated by EdWeek’s Sarah Sparks. The panel will draw on the evidence in the EdResearch for Recovery brief, “Preparing Schools to Meet the Needs of Students Coping with Trauma and Toxic Stress.”
