Reply to "schools/classrooms using trauma-informed practices?"

Rod: I'm doing a series of stories about trauma-informed schools. Here's the overview:

Here's a story about the work being done by the Washington State Area Health Education Center in Spokane:

Cherokee Point Elementary in San Diego started out with restorative practices and is now moving to a trauma-informed approach:

I'll be doing a story about the HEARTS program in San Francisco put together by Joyce Dorado at UCSF. Google HEARTS, UCSF and you'll find info about it.

And, mentioned in the overview, is Massachusetts. I'll be doing a story about the Brockton School District, which is implementing a trauma-informed approach in all its schools. The elementary schools have transitioned; middle schools are next; then high schools. 

Wisconsin is working with Susan Cole and Joe Ristuccia, and there's a page on the state dept of education's site about trauma-informed schools. 

In the video section, there's a series of videos from a workshop that Ristuccia presented in Delaware.

Cheers, Jane
