Abstract | School systems throughout the United States need collective healing. The COVID-19 pandemic sent a shock through the nation resulting in many families experiencing job loss, food insecurity, increased financial and emotional stress, and mental health issues for the first time, while exacerbating such issues for many other families who already experienced them. This practitioner brief is one in a series highlighting concrete ways that leaders can increase educational equity by building supportive learning environments that meet all students' social and emotional needs. The introductory brief to this series suggests that changes at three levels of the educational system are needed to promote students' social and emotional well-being: (1) the structural and policy level; (2) the level of educators' well-being and capabilities; and (3) the level of specific strategies that strengthen students' social and emotional well-being. This brief focuses on the first and second levels: how school districts can become healing spaces for all by reevaluating system-wide policies and structures and building educators' capabilities and supporting their well-being. It describes the experiences of three educational systems that are striving to address the adversity that affects their school communities. The brief begins by describing how adversity alters human development and learning and the opportunity schools have to mitigate those effects for students of all backgrounds. It then describes how these educational systems are recognizing the presence of chronic stress and trauma in their staff members and students, and in response adopting system-wide policies and practices that promote healing from harmful experiences.
