2018 Student & Staff Workshops

• CSSRC staff conducted Student/Staff Summits in November and December. We traveled to Grand Junction, Ft. Morgan and Pueblo where over 300 middle and high school students joined us. Students were captivated by the two-hour keynoters and shared incredible insights and suggestions about issues of school safety within focus groups. Please see their comments and ideas on Bullying Prevention, Healthy Relationships, Conducting Drills at their Schools and Suicide Prevention and Intervention
