A Practical Guide for Crisis Response in Our Schools: Fifth Edition conveys critical information to assist schools in responding effectively to “everyday crises” as well as school-based disasters. It is an invaluable resource for administrators, support personnel and faculty.

School crisis response can no longer be delegated solely to members of a School Crisis Response Team. Today, crisis management is the responsibility of all educators. This dramatically expanded publication provides a structure and process for effectively managing the wide spectrum of school-based crises. It is an invaluable resource in preparation for, and during, actual crisis situations and continues to serve as a meaningful standard for our nation's schools.

By reaching our school families early with a comprehensive Crisis Response Plan, we can potentially prevent the acute difficulties of today from becoming the chronic problems of tomorrow.

A Practical Guide for University Crisis Response


   
A Practical Guide for University Crisis Response provides a structure and process for effectively managing the wide spectrum of university-based crises - from the seemingly mundane to the most severe. This guide recognizes that crisis response cannot be delegated solely to administrators and members of the Crisis Response Team. Effective crisis management is the responsibility of all university personnel.


This publication introduces and incorporates a practical and effective strategy for addressing the emotional needs of people during traumatic events, Acute Traumatic Stress Management (ATSM). ATSM does not require caregivers to be mental health practitioners. Rather, ATSM can empower all university personnel by providing a "road map" to keep people functioning and mitigate long-term emotional suffering.

Comprehensive Acute Traumatic Stress Management


   
Acute Traumatic Stress Management (ATSM) is a pragmatic process that was developed for all emergency responders to address the emergent psychological needs of individuals who are exposed to traumatic events. The implementation of ATSM, along with traditional emergency medical intervention, offers a comprehensive response strategy to meet the needs of the "whole person." By reaching people early, during traumatic exposure, we may ultimately prevent acute traumatic stress reactions from becoming chronic stress disorders.

ATSM offers "practical tools" for addressing the wide spectrum of traumatic experiences — from mild to the most severe. It is a goal-directed process delivered within the framework of a facilitative or helping attitudinal climate. ATSM aims to "jump-start" an individual's coping and problem-solving abilities. It seeks to stabilize acute symptoms of traumatic stress and stimulate healthy, adaptive functioning.

The Academy offers a 20% discount for orders over 25 copies of Acute Traumatic Stress Management. The discount will be calculated automatically when placing your on-line order.
