In this episode, we're spotlighting LOSD CARES (Connection and Resilience in Education Series). This powerful initiative began during the early days of the pandemic and continues to support students and families across our district. Our guest, Brittany Erspamer, an elementary school counselor and one of the founders of LOSD CARES, joins us to share the origins and evolution of the program; how it’s helping families navigate social-emotional challenges; and what’s ahead including an upcoming parenting workshop on building resilience in a digital ageWe’re also thrilled to welcome Kaylee Meier, a Hallinan Elementary student, who shares what she’s learned through social-emotional learning and the positive impact her school counselor has had on her. As Dr. Schiele reminds us, this is a timely and vital conversation, especially as we approach Mental Health Awareness Month. LOSD CARES is a model that demonstrates how schools, families, and communities can collaborate to support the whole child every day.Dr. Jennifer Schiele, Superintendent, LOSDMary Kay Larson, Executive Director of Communications, LOSDBrittany Erspamer, School Counselor, Hallinan ElementaryKaylee Meier, Student, Hallinan ElementaryLOSD CARES
