Dr. Beverly Logan from the NYC Department of Education explains their crisis support protocol and collaboration with DOHMH in response to traumatic events affecting students and families.

  • When an event occurs in a neighborhood or home and is reported to the school, DOE has a crisis support protocol in place
  • If a family notifies the principal, DOE reaches out to determine what supports are needed
  • DOE collaborates with DOHMH partners if there's an on-site clinic within the school or for referrals outside the school
  • There is also a partnership with preventive services through the Administration for Children's Services (ACS) to support families
