As educators prepare for a fall semester that will likely include expanded online courses, we urge schools and institutions to prioritize a trauma-informed approach, whether or not courses move online. Students and educators are worried about their own health and the health of their loved ones, experiencing or witnessing increased racist attacks and police violence and other forms of institutionalized racism, grieving those they’ve lost, being stressed about the economy and the world, being impacted by extreme disruptions to their daily routines, and generally experiencing trauma right now.
