Student and Staff Safety Summit 2021

banner for Student and Staff Summit 2021

Each year, the Colorado School Safety Resource Center staff organize a statewide Student/Staff Safety Summit. Once again the Center is going virtual--any middle school and/or high school students and their staff can participate. It will be an opportunity for students and staff to participate in workshops on issues of safety and bring ideas back to their school communities for implementation.

Please join us for the Summit, brought to you virtually and at NO COST on Tuesday, December 7th, 2021. You may register up to six middle and/or high school students with one designated adult to accompany each group of students. This format is designed to encourage post-conference school-based conversations to audit student perceptions of resources and climate, and adult reflection of capacity to offer support. 

Registration is now open (Free Registration)!
