Crisis Prevention and Intervention Psychologists

Schools are an integral part of the community, and play a critical role in supporting the whole child. As such, we are well-positioned to support our students, families, and community in times of crisis. With responsive prevention and intervention efforts, we can help mitigate the impact of the crisis, teach appropriate coping skills, and even strengthen a person’s capacity to survive future crises. When crisis strikes, the RUSD Crisis Response Team (CRT) may be mobilized to provide support for staff, students and families.
