NYS Dignity for All Students Act (DASA) Coordinator

May 7 @ 9:00 am - 1:30 pm

$225

The Dignity for All Students Act is a state law intended to create a learning environment free of bullying, harassment, and  discrimination for ALL students. This is not an easy task. Implementation requires policies and procedures as well as intentional actions to create a safe and supportive school climate where all students know they are valued members of the school community. An integral component of successful implementation is a knowledgeable, empowered, and empathetic Dignity Act Coordinator. This session will provide information to Dignity Act Coordinators on the technical requirements of Dignity Act implementation as well as the adaptive skills essential for receiving and responding to incident reports. Misconceptions surrounding School Safety and the Educational Climate (SSEC) reporting will be addressed to ensure attendees are equipped to support questions around reporting. (Please note this is not the 6-hour  course for teacher certification).

  • Learn more about your role as a Dignity Act Coordinator
  • Identify key resources to guide effective implementation of the Dignity Act
