NEW RESOURCES FROM US FOR YOU 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈
* NEW GUIDE! Our new guide, “Honoring Grief: Invitations for Educators to Allow & Embrace Our Own Lived Experiences in the Classroom and Beyond” is based on insights gathered over two years from SCRR’s “Honoring Grief” series. This guide offers a framework for educators and school leaders to acknowledge and hold space for both their own grief and that of their students. Written by our Field Coaches Brianna Young and Oriana Ides. Check it out at: bit.ly/SCRR_HG_Guide
* NEW BLOG! In “Flowers in a Garden: Making space for grief and healing in our schools, in our classrooms, in ourselves – Reflections from a 2023-2024 SCRR Leadership Fellow,” Roberta Marguerite Chávez explores her grief journey as an educator and offers a template of a process that she created as an SCRR 2023-2024 Fellow for her capstone project, making space for colleagues to grieve and heal.
* NEW BLOG! In “Getting to Our Grief: Utilizing Poetry to Metabolize Grief,” Niki Magtoto our Senior Project Manager, reflects on her personal grief journey and returns to the art-based healing practice at our 2024 Winter Institute for Educator Healing.

Join us for session 2 of our 🌿 Liberated School Suicide Postvention Study & Inquiry Series
THIS WEDS December 4, 2024
We will explore a problem of practice for a member of our community together! Details below!
⏰10 :00 a.m. – 11:30 p.m. PT / 12:00 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. CT / 1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. ET
✨ How might we guide ourselves and the field toward community-responsive and critically reflexive liberated school postvention policy development and practice implementation? ✨
In this iteration of our community of practice, we want to engage in shared meaning-making by holding space for lived experiences and reviewing research and articles from experts in the field. This series is designed to hold conversations and co-create resources for liberated school suicide postvention policy and practice.
We will use a “Socratic style” conversation to facilitate rich discussion, two of our sessions will be dialogue driven by lived experiences of school support staff navigating postvention from a liberated lens, and two sessions will center on a critical reflection around current research.
