TIP #5 POST

  • It is the last week of #SeeUsSupportUs! The final tip for educators who are supporting students with incarcerated parents is to advocate for school policies that support affirming environments and restorative practices. Implementing restorative and trauma-informed practices can increase access to resources that heal and support a child’s development, rather than punish a child for behavior that is often rooted in unmet needs. Championing policy change also shows students you care about their well-being and models how they can be an advocate for change: https://www.susu-osborne.org/5-tips-for-educators
