Cross-State Collaborative to Support Schools in the Opioid Crisis Meeting
Wednesday, December 11, 2019
Approximately 20 collaborative members across the REL Appalachia (REL AP) states will convene for the second meeting of Cross-State Collaborative to Support Schools in the Opioid Crisis (CCSSOC). Collaborative members and attendees will learn about a Multi-Tiered System of Supports framework and common components of trauma-informed interventions and programs within each tier of the framework. Collaborative members and attendees will learn how to use newly developed program selection tools to select a suitable mental health program to meet the needs of students. The meeting will feature collaborative members from the West Virginia Department of Education (WVDE) who will talk about their new mental health initiative, Reclaim WV; WVDE members will be joined by one of their partner agencies—the West Virginia Center for Children's Justice (WVCCJ), whose Executive Director will introduce the Handle With Care (HWC) program, which supports children exposed to trauma. Members and attendees will hear firsthand from a Superintendent about HWC implementation in his district and have a chance to ask questions to learn more.
