Certification
As a former licensed foster care parent. I have been through extensive training to help listen and maintain relationships with students that others may turn from.
I am also grateful to have had the opportunity to go through Restorative Practices training. This program believes in finding the harm in a relationship and repairing it instead of just going straight to punishing.
