The Federal government recently released $122 Billion in Elementary and Secondary Schools Emergency Relief (ESSER) funding to schools across the nation. The funding includes goals to address student learning loss and trauma while providing social and emotional learning (SEL) and mental health supports.

This opportunity for communities and schools to partner together is a rare, one-time funding opportunity to provide needed relief from adult and student trauma surrounding the COVID-19 Pandemic. Choosing the right program can help you to deliver much needed services to your local school district, build local resilience, and address learning loss.

Join Kay Reed, Executive Director of The Dibble Institute, to explore what ESSER funds can be used for, and how ESSER can help you to build a partnership with your local school district to provide much-needed services.
