About This Webinar
For decades, educators have questioned mandatory reporting. Does the requirement to report any possible trauma in the homes of our students actually help children and their families? When might reporting kick off a cascade of possibly harmful consequences?
Many educators have been dismayed to see the intrusive surveillance, coercion and painful family separation that sometimes result from mandatory reporting, especially among marginalized families.
Join this 2024 Share My Lesson Virtual Conference session on mandated support in education to explore the key question: what is truly best for our students?
We will discuss:
- Mandatory reporting in the United States
- AFT's action guide
- New tools and resources for supportive educators
This session is open to everyone including classroom teachers and aides, paraprofessionals and support personnel, specialized instructional support personnel, school counselors, parents and caregivers. Learn how to fill your toolkits with strategies to support thriving students and unified families.
