Belonging Matters! School Welcoming with ULTIMATE CITIZENS
Amid a national youth mental health crisis, there’s a shortage of school counselors and youth mental health resources to help. Join the filmmakers behind the documentary ULTIMATE CITIZENS for an interactive conversation about building resilience and belonging, and creating more welcoming schools for all. Using the film as a case study, we’ll share best practices of an extraordinary school counselor known especially for his work with immigrant and refugee students in a K-8 school. Come and share your own stories of making schools a place where young people can thrive.
