Understanding Anxiety and Avoidance: Tools for Supporting Student Success 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM
Time Zone: (UTC-04:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada) [Change Time Zone]

Avoidance is one of the most common behaviors we see among students experiencing anxiety. When not addressed effectively, symptoms of anxiety can lead students to build avoidance-based habits that negatively impact their engagement and leave them vulnerable to major disruptions in their school functioning, like being chronically absent or school avoidant.  

In this webinar, we will focus on evidence-based approaches all staff members can use to recognize and respond to student anxiety. With a wealth of research to draw from, educators will walk away from this webinar with: 

  • An improved understanding of the relationship between anxiety and avoidance 

  • Guidance on how anxiety manifests at different ages and signs to look for 

  • Approaches that balance being supportive and strategic so students build healthy habits for responding to anxiety 

  • Considerations for intervention planning for when student anxiety and stress play a significant role in their functioning
