Eleven Ways the Safe Schools/Healthy Students Framework Implementation Toolkit (Safe Schools FIT) Can Make Your School A Safer Place This Year
As students and educators head back to the classroom this fall, issues like school safety and mental health are undoubtedly top-of-mind. But, how can schools create safer, healthier learning environments with limited resources? Where can communities and schools get the tools they need to make school a great place for all?
The Safe Schools Framework Implementation Toolkit, or Safe Schools FIT, is the answer.
Here at the National Resource Center, we work every day with Safe Schools/Healthy Students grantees on strategies for sustaining and expanding their work at the state and local level. And we’ve known for some time that we need to “walk the talk” about expanding the SS/HS model nationally. That’s why we’ve been busy for over a year crafting and refining the most comprehensive online toolkit imaginable to implement and sustain the SS/HS model anywhere in the U.S.
Too many students across the country worry about their safety in school, and that unacceptable reality prevents them from learning and thriving. But the roots of youth violence—and the solutions—are complex. Educators need as many realistic, proven, and evidence-based solutions as possible.
