I still advocate for quality Social Studies instruction. Four years ago I started a nonprofit, Ritz Fest, SC's only annual youth suicide prevention benefit festival raising money for the Jason Foundation. Check us out at theritzfest.org or see us on Facebook.
Looking to Research for Literacy Success: Ten Ways Educators Can Bring Knowledge-Building into their Classrooms Two posts are out. Two more coming soon! Post 1 (overview): ascd.org/blogs/looking-… Post 2: ascd.org/blogs/the-lang… @ASCD @ClassroomWonder
Coping strategies that have worked in the past for someone who is considering suicide are an important component of a safety plan – a plan that helps keep that person safe from suicide. buff.ly/2POlymh
Shane is a Bad Kid who headlined RitzFest’23 and will be back for ‘24!
It’s going to be a great night!
Our next Geographers in the Field event is right around the corner! Join us Saturday, March 25 at Peachtree Rock as we explore biogeography, conservation, and talk field-experiences for students. And it's free! Register here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
Registration for #RunforLife2023 is now live! We hope you’ll join us from Sept. 16 to 23 to remember those we’ve lost to suicide and raise awareness for suicide prevention. This event is virtual, with an in-person pop-up event happening in #yyc. buff.ly/3YZGMwS
"Being around others who have had a #suicideloss will just make you feel worse.” - The fallacy of this common misperception can be demonstrated by simply participating in a single meeting of a peer-led suicide loss support group.
Trauma-Informed Care represents a significant paradigm shift from what has been called a “deficit perspective” to one that is strengths-based. Learn more in our toolkit about trauma and suicide. buff.ly/2lNwQFE
Cheers to the 2023 Fire Safe SC launch! Visit: firesafe.sc.gov/docs/FSSC-Kick…
Trauma can lead to mental health disorders like PTSD and substance use disorder, both of which increase a person’s risk of suicide. These disorders should be treated with a trauma-informed care approach. Learn more in our toolkit on trauma and suicide. buff.ly/2IiIToE
RitzFest is searching for one act comedies and one act dramas, the latter focusing on suicide prevention. Anyone know any good titles?
When listening to someone who is struggling, don’t make it seem like they’re overreacting, and don’t change the subject. buff.ly/2H2Lq9k
"I'm not a counsellor," says Gerard Hayes, @NAIT vice-president of students and campus life. "I’m committed to getting them help – there are people out there to talk to.”
RitzFest Facebook page has new images from our first annual event on 4 Feb. please consider friending us on FB as we work to promote an even bigger and better RitzFest’24! We surpassed our fundraising goal of $3k for JFI and raised $5,101.28! Not bad for year 1! Help stop suicide
Kindness is contagious - when people witness acts of kindness, they are likely to model that kindness in their own actions. Learn more and join us for #BuddyUp Lift Up week, focusing on acts of kindness: buff.ly/3wYfjPR #BuddyUp
We can help prevent suicide by letting boys and men know that it’s okay to show and express emotion and ask for help. buff.ly/2H2Lq9k
"Our study found those who drink heavily and more frequently have increased risk of death by suicide, particularly over longer periods of time," says researcher Simon Sherry.
