This resource is intended to help educators understand how they might address the interplay of race and trauma and its effects on students in the classroom.

This guide is intended as a complement to two existing NCTSN resources—Position Statement on Racial Injustice and Trauma and Child Trauma Toolkit for Educators—and it should be implemented in accordance with individual school policies and procedures.
