  The Kids Who Aren't Okay: Reimagining Support, Belonging and Hope in Schools

  Ross Greene challenges long-held assumptions about discipline and student behavior, offering a transformative shift in how educators and leaders respond to today's growing mental health crisis.

Through his evidence-based Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS) model, Dr. Greene provides a practical, research-backed roadmap for learning environments where students feel understood, supported, and capable of success. Live online and on demand (recorded, for 60 days). Fees: early bird $179 until Oct 30, 2026; PD365 members $199; non-members $248 (includes one year of membership); 2 people $238 each; 3 people $228 each.
