About the event

Webinar Sponsor: Oxford University Press

The mental health crisis of today’s youth is at an all-time high, and school social workers play a vital role to help address the emotional well-being of these youth. Covid and many other variables have made youth more stressed , more anxious, and created major academic struggles. This session will focus on specific diagnoses that are being displayed in the classroom. It will provide tools and interventions to address various diagnoses as well as focus on social and emotional learning. This session will also address the topic of suicide prevention. Participants will learn about trauma and the implications that it has on academic success, relationships and general well-being. Participants will also be given activities that can be used for a group setting to address anxiety, depression and self-worth. The goal of this session is for participants to leave feeling that they have more tools in their tool box to support students ( and staff) in the school environment.

Speaker Disclaimer Statement Views expressed by presenters are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of SSWAA. Beliefs or Rationale: SSWAA welcomes a diversity of viewpoints expressed in a respectful manner. SSWAA also recognizes that social workers can agree to disagree agreeably, and still remain professional. Some speakers may express views that are inconsistent with good self-care, competence, or ethics. When this occurs, the NASW Code of Ethics specifically states that the colleague should be professionally approached and communicated with directly, before escalating the conflict or disagreement to another level. This may not always be possible or the colleague may be unresponsive to feedback. In these circumstances, SSWAA recommends addressing it with leadership of the organization or the proper authority.
