The purpose of this training is to identify how implicit biases (unconscious bias) has the potential to, or has, erected barriers in our actions which impact the way students, perceive, learn, and receive support within their respective school environments; and identification of tools and interventions to remove and eliminate those barriers.
The training sessions will involve group activities that use the Social-Ecological Model (SEM). Participants will apply their knowledge of implicit bias with the SEM in the contextual analysis of themselves, their students, and school system, in discussions about power as it relates to access and how it is exercised in making decisions using reason and judgment. A member of the Implicit Bias Community of Practice from Building a Thriving and Compassionate Community will facilitate the training sessions.

This training will provide teachers three modules which will help them give students tools and techniques to combat high stressors which exacerbate anxiety and despair. The goal is to provide HOPE where there is little or none, de-stigmatize failure and teach techniques to navigate what a student may perceive as their own personal crisis (academic, social, athletic etc..) Visualization/Vision Board Vision Boards provide hope and direction. They are “boards” or pieces of paper that include pictures, phrases or words of things you want to become or achieve. They help to motivate, energize and excite you. Vision Boards can be used as an easier form of goal setting. Failure Failure is a necessary and important piece of future success. Unfortunately, many parents are attempting to eliminate failure from their kid’s lives. These same kids then get jobs or go to college and are unprepared to handle setbacks. This UCARE module destigmatizes failure and helps provide positive takeaways. Fly The Plane As an airplane pilot, Sherwood uses some piloting techniques to take teachers through helping themselves and their students navigate a setback or personal crisis.
Stop the Bleed empowers the general public to make a difference in a life-threatening emergency by teaching them the basic techniques of bleeding control.
