Evidence-based approaches to building safe, healthy, and inclusive schools for all children.School safety has become a critical topic of concern in educational contexts. In this book, editors Christopher C. Morphew, Vanya C. Jones, and Ashley Cureton bring together a timely collection of essays to outline the obstacles to and most promising approaches for creating safe, healthy, and inclusive schools for all children. Challenging the current national discourse around school safety as a form of violence prevention, contributors broaden our view of safe schools to include places that are accessible and equitable for all youth, particularly those from historically marginalized communities.Chapters provide historical perspectives on and holistic solutions for supporting youth development and ensuring safe spaces for children to learn and grow. A broad range of interdisciplinary scholars apply their expertise to discuss evidence-based practices, programs, tools, and policies integral to developing safe and healthy school environments. Contributors cover topics such as suicide prevention, trauma-sensitive schools, bullying and cyberbullying, social media and technology, mental health promotion, family and community engagement, and school security.Tailored to school leaders, teachers, policymakers, safety officers, and researchers who are invested in making schools safe and inclusive places, Creating Safe, Healthy, and Inclusive Schools draws on a trauma-informed and youth-centered perspective.

This welcome and timely book raises the bar, expanding our understanding of 'school safety' to include mental health, freedom from disinvestment and structural violence, and freedom from cultural erasure. It returns us to a discussion of the positive development of youth, a discussion often lost in the mad chase for test scores.—Charles M. Payne, coeditor of Dignity-Affirming Education: Cultivating the Somebodiness of Students and Educators
