Support Staff Social-Emotional Well-Being (EAB Global, Inc.)
Description:
Support Staff Social-Emotional Well-Being - The majority of teachers experience ongoing mental and emotional stress as part of such a demanding job. But teachers who work with students exposed to trauma are at greater risk of compassion fatigue and burnout as a result of hearing about students’ experiences and dealing with the negative effects.
Destigmatizing mental health needs and emotional exhaustion and creating formal structures to support teacher well-being are critical to the sustainability of trauma-informed practice.
Create support systems grounded in self-assessment of the signs and symptoms of emotional distress to reduce teacher burnout and enable teachers to support the social-emotional needs of their students more effectively.
