School safety is not just a policy or a procedure; it is a leadership decision made every single day. This closing keynote focuses on how every educator, administrator, school mental health professional, and safety professional can lead by normalizing safety as a core component of school culture. Through the lens of the Comprehensive School Safety Framework, multidisciplinary teams can establish a strong foundation to address supports and needs before, during, and after a crisis event. By establishing this foundation, every leader has the opportunity to become a catalyst empowering a culture of safety.
