Creating an Inclusive and Diverse Space with Classroom Media Content
July 12, 2023
Creating an Inclusive and Diverse Space with Classroom Media Content
The presentation begins with data showing the strong impact of visuals on children’s perceptions and behaviors. All visuals a child is exposed to send a message to the child so classroom visuals should be chosen with intentionality. Further, classroom visuals should be seen as an opportunity to build inclusion and identity with students. The presentation then reviews best practices for the types of visuals teachers should include in their classrooms taking into account differences in factors such as race, ethnicity, gender, religion, body type, and abilities. The presentation ends with resources for teachers to increase diverse representation in their classroom content, as well as a personal call to action to 1) continuously increase their exposure to different types of people, and 2) keep an open mind to recognize and address their own biases.

January 24, 2024
Curriculum Violence
At its inception in 2010, Ighodaro and Wiggins defined curriculum violence as, “the deliberate manipulation of academic programming which compromises the intellectual or psychological well-being of learners.” Over the years we have come to know that intent matters very little when gauging the impact that curriculum violence has on learners. In this webinar, we will unpack how curriculum violence serves to create additional harm to marginalized groups within what should be the safety and sanctity of classrooms.

Fostering a Systematic Approach for Family Engagement
Families play a crucial and unique role in a child’s academic, social-emotional, and behavioral development and the establishment of effective family engagement strategies ensures that families have the skills and resources necessary to support and advocate for their children.

During this training, we work to understand the varying types of family engagement data, collection methods, and the components of a successful family engagement system. Participants are provided with the opportunity to develop an ‘Action Plan’ that includes action items and potential methods of delivery for their respective organizations' family engagement system.

School to Prison Pipeline - Practical Research and Recommendations from Successful Situations

School to Prison Pipeline - Practical Research and Recommendations from Successful Situations
Racial discrimination in schools in the U.S. has resulted in a disproportionate number of Black students receiving exclusionary and punitive consequences, in which they are more likely to end up part of the School-to-Prison Pipeline and less likely to graduate. In many situations, school leaders have found ways to both reduce the number of suspensions for their Black students and also the disparity in consequences between students of different racial backgrounds. This presentation will share themes that emerged from interviews with these successful school leaders, to be used as recommendations and reflections for consideration in your own school context.

Unlocking Human Potential: The Power of Story to Build Resilience, Character, Trust and Transparency
September 24, 2025
Unlocking Human Potential: The Power of Story to Build Resilience, Character, Trust and Transparency
This experience, led by Rebecca Francis and Devon LaRosa, is designed for educators and educational leaders who seek to deepen their impact by leading with authenticity, empathy, and intentionality. At its core, "Unlocking Human Potential" recognizes that storytelling is one of the most powerful tools we possess to humanize education and re-center connection in a system that too often prioritizes compliance over compassion.
Through storytelling, we move beyond transactional interactions and into transformational relationships. Stories invite us to name our struggles, celebrate our resilience, and embrace the complex, beautiful work of becoming. When educators and leaders share stories—of growth, challenge, identity, and change—we open the door for:
Resilience to take root in our school cultures,
Character to be modeled and nurtured in real, human ways,
Trust to be built authentically, not assumed,
And transparency to become a cultural norm, not an exception.
This session offers more than theory—it offers space. Space to reflect, to tell truth, to listen deeply, and to grow. It is an invitation to recognize the stories we carry and the stories our students and colleagues carry, and to use those narratives as bridges—toward belonging, equity, and possibility.
Because when we share our stories, we don’t just build community—we unlock human potential.

Youth Help-Seeking Around Mental Health: Using Data to Improve Mental Health Education
October 7, 2025
Youth Help-Seeking Around Mental Health: Using Data to Improve Mental Health Education
A recent study on Youth Help-Seeking Around Mental Health examines the impact of mental health education curricula in grades 5-12. The data is from student pre/post evaluations focusing on the identification of trusted adults and the students comfort in speaking with a trusted adult. The study and presentation from Shantal Saldaña provide clear recommendations for educators, classrooms and schools. Participants will learn about the latest data, impact of classroom-based interventions, and how to leverage data in their own classrooms to improve outcomes.
Every young person should have a trusted adult in their life. The Erika’s Lighthouse universal, Tier-1 depression education programs are effective at increasing help-seeking behavior by helping youth recognize additional prospective trusted adults and increasing their comfort level in speaking to a trusted adult about mental health.
