EDU.Empath is a team of educators, school-based practitioners, researchers, therapists, and innovators in technology who have come together to reimagine how to prepare educators to respond to students when they display negative behavior in schools.

Let’s be honest. Students sometimes lose their cool—and young people who experience trauma experience dysregulation in ways that can impact learning outcomes and educators’ ability to manage the classroom.

By learning to engage empathetic responses to student misbehavior, educators can support the goal of cultivating schools as locations for healing so that they realize their potential as locations for learning. Our innovative approaches support educators and other adults who work with students navigate their work in schools with unparalleled guidance and insight.
