THE POTENT POWER OF BELONGING

Course No. ED474y, ED574y

Our course text is a rare book that asks us to find out how some of the most challenging students can benefit from feeling the power of belonging. 

Adding the balance of a focus on self-care and dealing with crisis artfully makes this a valuable resource with a radical focus on words like love, compassion, and a culture of inclusion. If this sounds like a focus you would like to embody as a teacher, you will find many how-to’s in this book.
