Bridging the Gap Between School and Home

Friday, January 24, 2025 @ Overbrook Country Club

There has been a growing focus on creating trauma-informed schools over the last several years. While this has been a valuable first step, the same question keeps arising, what happens when students go home? This event will explore specific steps any school or district can make to address this issue, and ultimately bridge that gap between school and home.

In this session, Josh will introduce the foundational information that they share with every adult they work with, and explore the approaches that help to bridge that gap between school and home. Participants will leave equipped with tools that will help them to take the next steps towards further supporting every learner.

Act 48, CEU’s and PQAS available upon request.

My family was in such a dark place. My son had changed seemingly overnight into a child I did not know. His doctors had no answers for us. He could no longer attend school. He had retreated into his own mind and I did not know how to reach him. Josh and Lindsay helped me understand how my son's brain was operating and how I could connect with him and support him through this. Today, we are still healing but he is back at school, back with friends, and more and more back to being his old self. I am forever grateful.

From day one, InMind has been responsive, flexible and honest. In turn, staff and administrators can be vulnerable about their desires and needs to support students and each other. Their knowledge of restorative and trauma informed practice was a resource when a significant event impacted an entire school’s student body and staff. With InMind’s assistance, we will enhance our students’ lives by shifting mindsets and improving the school’s culture.
