With the new school year almost here, please make sure you review the 2 documents below on restraint and seclusion so you are aware of your child's rights and what you can do to help keep your child safe.

TASH Offers Free Parent Guide on Restraint and Seclusion: Shouldn’t School Be Safe?

A parent’s guide on prevention, detection and response to restraint, seclusion or other aversive interventions.

The process of finding help when a child is abused is not always clear, and many parents are discouraged or overwhelmed by the patchwork of laws and regulations handling restraint and seclusion in schools. ‘Shouldn’t School Be Safe?’ is a free resource developed for parents and by parents that offers insight and advice to respond to and prevent restraint and seclusion. http://tash.org/shouldnt-school-be-safe/
