This session will explore how a trauma-informed lens can transform how school mental health professionals and educators approach suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention. Grounded in culturally responsive practices, participants will examine how to recognize trauma-related risk factors, build protective environments, and support both students and staff through all components of comprehensive suicide prevention. Attendees will leave with practical tools and strategies that center connection and strengthen school-wide suicide prevention efforts.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;    &lt;h3 style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent; font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif" color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;By the end of this session, participants will be able to:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;    &lt;ol style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 21px; margin-top: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;    &lt;li&gt;      &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Understand the relationship between trauma-informed care and suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention in school settings.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;/li&gt;      &lt;li&gt;      &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Identify key trauma-related risk factors, warning signs, and protective factors that influence suicide risk among K-12 students.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;/li&gt;      &lt;li&gt;      &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Apply trauma-informed strategies to support students and school communities during suicide-related crises and after tragic incidents of death by suicide.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;/li&gt;      &lt;li&gt;      &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Develop culturally responsive approaches to mental health related misconceptions to promote help-seeking behaviors in school communities.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;/li&gt;      &lt;li&gt;      &lt;p style="line-height: 21px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Begin strengthening collaboration among school mental health professionals, staff, caregivers, and community partners to create safer and more supportive environments for youth.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;/li&gt;  &lt;/ol&gt;    &lt;p style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 21px; margin-top: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 21px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;PRESENTER INFORMATION:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 21px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Roddia Hill, PsyD has a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology with a specialization in Forensic Psychology and a masters in Clinical Psychology with a specialization in trauma.

Scott also served as the School Mental Health and Medicaid Consultant at MDE prior to accepting his current position. Scott is a life-long learner committed to servant leadership with a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Eastern Michigan University and a Bachelor's Degree from Michigan State University in Elementary Education. Prior to MDE, Scott worked as a teacher and administrator for 20 years in various K-12 settings, including general education, special education, urban, suburban, and rural, and these experiences have provided him with a diverse perspective that informs all of his work. Given that experience, he has seen firsthand the devastating effect of poor behavioral health care for students and the disparities that exist between the advantaged and disadvantaged. Scott is mindful of the unearned benefits he has received because of a systemic structure that grants privileges to some people and withholds them from others. Scott embraces diversity and understands he has a responsibility to work daily to combat discrimination and promote the worth of everyone. Scott is passionate about being a champion for ALL learners and is driven by a commitment to advocate for Michigan's students and families who have less access to needed resources.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
