Community Matters: Introducing an Evidence-Based School Climate Safety Program and How Your School or District Can Participate

Overview

Student bystanders are a critical and under-utilized resource for positively impacting the crisis of bullying and cyber-bullying in our schools. Students see, hear and know things adults don’t, can intervene in ways adults can’t and are often on the scene of a student incident before an adult.

The evidence-based Safe School Ambassadors® program (SSA) empowers student social leaders to speak up and intervene safely and effectively with their peers in bullying-related incidents. Since 2000, this field-tested model has equipped over 50,000 4-12th grade students in 1500 schools in 36 states, Canada, Japan, Guam and Puerto Rico with the communication skills to prevent and stop emotional and physical bullying and improve school climate.

We’ll cover:

  • A detailed description of the program and its basis
  • How it works
  • The results you can expect including suspension reductions, cost savings, reduced time overall and improved academic outcomes.

Who should attend?

  • School and District Administrators
  • Principals, Vice Principals, Deans
  • Counselors, teaching staff and anyone else involved with school climate / school discipline initiatives, PBIS, ESL, Restorative Practices
  • Risk Managers looking for an added value program
