PREPaRE -- Prevent and prepare for psychological trauma, Reaffirm physical health and perceptions of security and safety, Evaluate psychological trauma risk, Provide interventions and Respond to psychological needs, and  Examine the effectiveness of crisis prevention and intervention

 

The PREPaRE curriculum was developed by NASP to provide evidence-based resources and consultation related to school crisis prevention and response.  NASP leaders who developed the curriculum had extensive national experience designing and implementing crisis plans and responding to crises ranging from school shootings and suicide to terrorism and natural disasters.  PREPaRE is the only comprehensive nationally available curriculum developed by, and for, school-based mental health professionals.  The PREPaRE curriculum incorporates foundation knowledge provided by the US Dept. of Education, Homeland Security, and the Incident Command Structure (ICS) delineated by the National Incident Management System (NIMS). This workshop specifically addresses one of the two parts of this curriculum: Crisis Intervention and Recovery -- Roles for School-Based Mental Health Professionals.  The two-day workshop provides school-based staff with the knowledge needed to meet the needs of students and staff following a school-associated crisis event.
