CONFRONTING DEATH IN THE SCHOOL FAMILY
Guidelines and Tools for Adding a Tragedy Component to Your Crisis Response Team
Paperback with reproducible pages
By Dave Opalewski and Joel C. Robertson. This manual provides step-by-step guidelines and procedures for responding to tragic situations, including deaths due to accident or illness, suicide, homicide, or catastrophe. Based on the belief that the people best equipped to help the school family through a tragedy are the school’s own staff, the guide gives school counselors and administrators the tools to put in place a crisis response team that can act with competence and compassion. Special sections give detailed information on suicide education and prevention. The book also includes sample statements and letters to parents, as well as crisis response planning worksheets.
