Crisis Intervention in Schools

Crisis intervention in schools refers to immediate support and strategies used to help students facing emotional, behavioral, or psychological crises. When a student experiences a traumatic event, severe distress, or disruptive behavior, trained staff respond quickly to ensure safety, stabilize emotions, and prevent escalation. This process involves assessing the situation, providing reassurance, and connecting students with ongoing mental health resources or counseling if needed. The goal is to restore a sense of security, facilitate coping, and promote a positive learning environment for all students.
