- Suggestions for classroom setup
- Proactive behavioral supports

Every teacher brings their own unique culture, style, and passion into the classroom. This book offers a blueprint for creating a safe, welcoming classroom based in trauma-sensitive practice that can be adapted to your unique classroom.

Laura currently works in a special education early childhood program and was employed in a childcare facility for six years. Since entering the field of school psychology in 2008, her focus has been advocating for preschool through middle school students with significant behavioral needs and training educational professionals on behavioral practices and practical, evidence-based de-escalation strategies.

Jon Bowen, M.A., is a school psychologist and positive behavior support consultant with two decades of experience in diverse school settings.

Jon has taught at the college level and frequently provides professional development trainings and consultation for school staff, particularly those who care for our most challenged learners. Having had the privilege to work in hundreds of classrooms and learn from a myriad of fellow educators, Jon understands the value of best practices that are practical to implement.
