The Brains Behind Safety: Neuroscience Insights for Schools

Join us on February 6th from 5-7 PM Mountain Time (Denver) for this LIVE webinar as we explore how Safety and Belonging Start with the Brain!

We all know that creating a safe and welcoming environment is essential for students’ social-emotional, psychological, and cognitive well-being. However, as school-based or clinical mental health professionals, it can sometimes feel like we have limited control over the environments in which students spend their days.

But here’s the good news: we can make a difference. By sharing information with educators about how the brain perceives safety and threats, we can significantly impact students’ sense of security. This knowledge is a powerful tool for supporting students’ mental health.

In this LIVE webinar, you’ll learn how to:

  • Support schools in utilizing approaches that foster a sense of safety.
  • Nurture trust and belonging within educational settings.
  • Encourage students to face challenges with curiosity instead of fear.

Together, we’ll empower educators and students to discover that they can successfully manage difficult situations, ultimately supporting their overall well-being.
