The Nature Journal Educators Forum has a conversation about signs of crisis in students and how we might help and support them, as educators and concerned adults.
***Content warning: this conversation includes heavy topics such as students in crisis, harm, self-harm, neglect, signs of abuse, suicide, and others.***
Disclaimer: We are not health care professionals, and so we cannot offer medical advice. We include resources listed below that might help to link people to those more experienced in health care. This discussion is not intended to offer medical advice and does not take the place of professional care. We are educators, parents, and in some cases survivors who care deeply for our students, and we want to do our best to look out for them.
Session from 6 March 2024. Part 1 of the discussion, “Student Vulnerabilities”, will be uploaded soon in a future video.
Here are some resources our forum members shared. We send a huge THANK YOU to the educators who shared these resources!
