The good news is that schools can now register for Safe2Help without meeting any prerequisites. This means that you can gain access to the K-12 Threat Assessment Teams website and resources without any prior qualifications. Additionally, NDE, the PPC, and Boys Town will work with districts to identify times to get their threat assessment team members trained as we move forward. If you have questions or concerns regarding Safe2Help registration, please get in touch with Jay Martin at jay.martin@nebraska.gov.

Sorry, We have no events for the rest of March.

Psychological First Aid for Schools (PFA-S) Team Virtual Training

April 16 and 17, 2024 (8:30-3:30 CT)

Please note: The goal of the virtual Psychological First Aid for Schools (PFA-S) training is to assist schools in building PFA-S support teams. PFA-S is the suggested component of the recovery process of your Emergency Operations Plan. The PFA-S response can help staff and students recover from distressful reactions to crisis incidents.

This training is designed for staff who have served or plan to serve on the Crisis Response team and is provided at no cost to schools.
