This 2-day workshop develops the knowledge and skill required to provide immediate mental health crisis interventions to the students, staff, and school community members who have been simultaneously exposed to an acute traumatic stressor. The PREPaRE model emphasizes:

• preventing and preparing for crises
• reaffirming physical health and welfare, and perceptions of safety and security
• evaluating psychological trauma risk
• providing interventions
• responding to mental health needs
• examining the effectiveness of crisis preparedness

NOTE: Registration Deadline is Friday, August 14 at 4:00 pm ET.  

Participants must attend the entire day and stay through the end of the day on both days to take the post-test in order to receive a certificate of completion.

This training is offered at no cost by the KDE Stronger Connections Grant!  However, due to having to purchase seat licenses ahead of time, anyone who cancels registration after Friday, August 14, 2026 will be billed for the license fee.

6.5 Hours of EILA will be available each day.  Participants must commit to attending the entire day on both days and allow for some preparation time prior to the training.
