Abstract	Researchers and practitioners in fields such as psychology and social work increasingly recognize the significant need for schools, in general, to be sites for delivery of trauma-informed practices. Given the extent and nature of trauma exposure in our schools, we believe it is critical that the primary individual supporting trauma-informed practices is physically present in the school daily, integrated within school routines, and has ongoing relationships with students, teachers, and staff. In this article we will reexamine the role of the School Counselor (SC) through the lens of "This We Believe: The Keys to Educating Young Adolescents" and illuminate the many reasons the SC's voice and perspective is essential to school-wide enactment of trauma-informed practices. We believe SCs need a voice at the table regarding school-wide decisions and advocate that they lead the collective charge in trauma-informed practices in schools to best serve middle level students. By sharing one voice and accepting the role of SC as the mental health experts in our schools, we will see transformative change in education while serving our youth in need by leading trauma-informed and trauma-sensitive schools.
