Does this sound familiar?

A few staff members are always called when things escalate
Everyone else tries to manage as best they can
Students get mixed signals
Power struggles increase instead of resolve

It doesn’t have to be this way.

In our upcoming live webinar, we’ll talk about how schools create consistent staff responses so safety and support aren’t limited to just a few people.

In many schools, behavior support looks like this:

For all: Classroom teachers managing daily disruption
For some: Specialists stepping in when things escalate
For a few: A small group handling crisis moments—again and again

That imbalance creates burnout, power struggles, and unsafe moments.

In our upcoming live webinar, we’ll show how Safety-Care helps schools build consistent staff responses—so responsibility doesn’t fall on just a few people.

This session is especially relevant for classroom educators who want language and clarity they can share with administrators.

"I really hope trainees have a positive experience so they see that Safety-Care is something that is going to actually enhance their organization versus something that’s a checkbox to be compliant. But that they’re taking it in and loving the mission, and knowing that by communicating respect and promoting dignity, we have the ability to make a lasting change."

It was a natural extension of values she has carried throughout her career in special education and applied behavior analysis. From the beginning, her work has been grounded in relationship building, promoting individuals’ dignity, and a deep respect for the humanity of both learners and the professionals who support them.
