Proactive methods for supportive care™
Content designed by mental health & education professionals to support a proactive approach to classroom behavior. Using social-emotional learning and trauma-informed care, we help teachers examine the things that matter most while providing actionable strategies & easy-to-use classroom resources.
Our proactive content focuses on the 4 pillars of a systematic approach to promoting pro-social behaviors: relationships, physical environments, teaching strategies, and ongoing support systems for sustainability. Providing implementable methods and embedded practice and planning across these categories allows educators to learn skills to prevent challenging behavior while also providing them with a space to support their own self-care.
