About the Webinar:

Committing to equity means committing to disrupting harm interpersonally and institutionally. This session centers the experience and wellness needs of BIPOC Educators and highlights the connection between radical self-care, cultural humility, collective and systemic care and secondary traumatic stress intervention in our school systems.

Learning Objectives:

• Participants will be able to define what Secondary Traumatic Stress looks, feels and sounds like in schools as well as identify common symptoms and risk factors unique to BIPOC educators.
• Participants will explore the ways in which Secondary Traumatic Stress impacts BIPOC educators across life domains.
• Participants will be able to identify personal, organizational and communal protective factors to improve institutional safety and wellness for BIPOC school staff.
• Participants will locate collective wisdom and cultural strengths within BIPOC educators when navigating spaces of crisis/traumatic systems.

About the Series:

The Northwest MHTTC and the Pacific Southwest MHTTC are continuing our partnership to provide and extend deeper technical assistance on the Interconnected Systems Framework (ISF). This year, we are offering programming to deepen your ISF work and contextualize ISF to this moment of COVID-19 and beyond.

Interconnected Systems Framework (ISF) is a structure and process that maximizes effectiveness and efficiency by blending the strengths of school and community mental health with strengths of the multi-tiered framework of PBIS (Barrett, Eber, Weist, 2013).

This webinar is part of our ISF West Coast Party Webinars: Enhancing MTSS - Integrating Student Mental Health and Wellness Through Systems, Data, and Practices. This series consists of four modules and ends with a town hall for you to be able to ask faculty your questions and resource one another. Each module includes teaching from Susan Barrett and field leaders on ISF systems and USC faculty on ISF practices. 

Mental Health is Everyone’s Job. Come learn how the Interconnected Systems Framework approach supports students, staff and families.
