Why we need quality CYCP's in every school!!! As professionals, we find student strengths and focus on them, building capacity and self esteem through supportive relational practice. It's amazing, but when a kid feels safe & secure, many fear-based behaviours slowly disappear.

As a CYCP, I'm interested in the no suspensions before Grade 3 piece. I hope they actually invest in more professionals trained in restorative practices & conflict resolution to help mediate student/staff conflict & assist schools with this! (AKA: CYCP's!) thestar.com/politics/provinc…

TEACHER FRIENDS. If your equity discussions around education do not include perspectives from CYCs, ECE, EAs, or anyone else regularly in the classrooms and largely staffed by women and racialized people...we have a problem. #onted #ETFO #OSSTF
