Lowest New Price: $58.95List Price: $58.95 Description: The second edition of What Will We Do? Preparing A School Community to Cope With Crises is a guidebook for educators and parents who wish to understand the importance of both pre- and post-intervention programs in our schools to assist all parties in coping with crises that arise. The book examines the scope and effects (including the potential benefits and possible risks) of programs that target such issues as loss, illness, death, grief, war, and violence. It presents specific steps that can be taken to help prepare a school community to cope with possible future crises. Today's news has shown us with dramatic effect that a crisis can occur at any time, often without warning. Educators and parents must work together if they wish to help young people, and each other, when such a crisis occurs. What Will We Do? is a major step in that direction. The first edition of this book has been used as a college text for future educators and counselors and in workshops for teachers, parents and community leaders. It has been adopted by educators in the United States and abroad to create crisis response programs that meet the unique needs of their own schools and cultures. What Will We Do? is being used in Australia, Greece, Britain, Japan, South Africa, and Canada to cite a few examples. In each case, communities have developed programs for their schools using the information in this work as a starting point. Perhaps prevention is an idea whose time has finally come.
