Trauma Informed Positive Education: Research and Evaluation of the Berry Street Education Model

The Berry Street Education Model (BSEM) is a trauma-informed strengths-based approach designed to inform and guide teacher practice, student learning, student engagement, and psychosocial functioning. By integrating clinical, educational and welfare approaches and perspectives, the BSEM aims to expand the possibilities of teaching and learning within schools to address the needs of vulnerable and at-risk students who have experienced various forms of trauma.
