> When crisis strikes a school, a shared language between staff, students, and first responders can mean the difference between chaos and coordinated safety

## Key points

- The Standard Response Protocol provides a common language for students, staff, and first responders to improve coordinated crisis response in schools.
- Effective reunification after a school crisis requires both accountability systems and mental health support for students and families.
- The 'I Love U Guys' Foundation's trainers bring personal crisis experience, lending credibility and depth to their school safety programs.

During the podcast, they discussed the following:

• The development and implementation of the Standard Response Protocol, a shared vocabulary between students, staff, and the first responders for school safety.

• Challenges and strategies for reunification of students with parents after a crisis while maintaining accountability and mental health support.

• The Foundation's unique approach to training with insights from trainers having personal experience in crisis.

The **"I Love U Guys" Foundation**, was established in 2006 after **John-Michael** and his wife, **Ellen**, lost their daughter, **Emily** to a tragic school shooting, Emily's last text messages that day were, "I love U Guys, K" to her mother, and "I Love U Guys" to her father, which became the catalyst for their mission to restore and protect the joy of youth through educational programs and positive actions in collaboration with families, school, communities, and government entities.
