School-Based Suicide Postvention from a Liberated Lens: A Community of Practice
A collaborative and conversational space to build the field’s capacity to hold ourselves and each other after death by suicide in our school communities with equity and liberation at the forefront.
October 20, 2022, January 19, 2023, March 2, 2023, and May 4, 2023
10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. PT / 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. ET (view in your time zone)
This community of practice is a collaborative & brave space for school based or connected practitioners from across the country to come together to share insights, be present together and develop strategies and tools to share with your own networks relating to school suicide postvention, collective care, and healing. Building on last year’s School Suicide Postvention CoP (access resources here), we are deepening our discourse and discussions by designing our space to hold an explicit focus on liberation and the inclusion of young people in our postvention policies, practices, conversations and decisions.
Each of the four CoP sessions focuses on a different question or need for participants to discuss, ideate and leverage collective wisdom to move conversations and practice forward regarding liberated school postvention. This taps into the post-crisis human need for agency, community and growth, while crafting meaning and learning for ourselves and each other.
- Sessions will be conversational and focused on resourcing each other, sharing and problem-solving around current dilemmas and providing peer support across roles, experiences and school settings.
- The goal is to define intentional actions and mindset shifts that create healing and liberating postvention policies and systems of support within school-based teams and those supporting young people in schools.
Who Should Come?
This community of practice is for anyone who supports student and staff mental health in school settings, state, district and county school administrators, student support services providers, and anyone interested.
**Please note you do not have to have attended the CoP last year! We welcome new members to this vibrant space.
