Every Student Belongs: Actionable Steps to Respond to Biased Incidents, Restore, and Build Community

Every Student Belongs: Actionable Steps to Respond to Biased Incidents, Restore, and Build Community

Students are the center of our work and each school district strives to create safe spaces for students to learn and grow. Every Student Belongs, adopted in 2021, requires school districts to take specific actions when a biased incident happens at school or school events. 

In this interactive session, participants will work with sample Biased Response Plans, practice responding to scenarios, and begin to consider ways to implement supportive practices in their home districts within the following framework:

  • Build:  Build trust and create safe and caring environments
  • Address:  Treat the incident seriously and with immediate attention
  • Restore: Restore school culture by implementing an intentional healing process
