In this webinar, Dr. Janine Jones reviews essential skills that school psychologists should utilize when embedding culturally responsive approaches in mental health interventions. She emphasizes an intentional focus on the student’s characteristics, values, and cultural context when implementing evidence-based interventions. She shares practical examples of how school psychologists can integrate culturally responsive approaches when conducting interviews, counseling, collecting data, and building rapport with students and families.  She provides participants with a tool that lists questions one can ask to get a better understanding of the student and family’s sociocultural background. She gives examples of how students struggle with microaggressions, stereotype threat, and discrimination and explains what school psychologists can do to help students in these situations. She references a variety of well-established research and models from which she bases her recommendations on. Presented by Janine Jones, PhD, NCSP in November of 2022.
