It's going to take focused investment and supportive relationships to help our young people come back from the mental health crises spurred by the pandemic.

Join the conversation starting Monday, with a live Twitter chat on the topic next Wednesday! #DebriefTraumaGrief

[Voices for Georgia's Children @GeorgiaVoices]

The more traumatic events and corresponding stress that a child faces, the more likely they are to suffer negative long-term consequences. On Monday, we explore childhood trauma – what it is, what causes it, and how to prevent or mitigate its effects. #DebriefTraumaGrief

[Secretary Miguel Cardona @SecCardona]

We cannot look at mental wellbeing as something to do, if there’s time. We need to make it the foundation on which we’re building academic support & recovery. We have to address where students are emotionally before we access bandwidth for learning. https://t.co/nJnJdewvsG

A new study shows that training on social justice and race equity is important to ensuring that mentors can provide racial/ethnic support to youth. https://t.co/gcMhbLbhTh Do you train your mentors on cultural humility and social justice? Tell us about it!

[MENTOR Georgia @MENTORGeorgia]

Using a student's or a mentee's given or preferred name is critical to making him or her feel seen and accepted.

[We Are Teachers @WeAreTeachers]

It sounds like you have good intentions, but it's helpful to reflect on the power and importance of learning to say someone's name.
