The Foundations of Co-Regulation, Trauma-Informed Practice, and Inclusive SEL

“Practical, real, and exactly what educators need right now.”
— Alissa Kostopoulos, BCBA

Before students can learn, they must feel safe. Safe to Learn bridges the gap between big ideas and daily practice—giving teachers, administrators, support staff, and families tools they can use right away.

✨ What’s Inside

• Regulation before expectation → why nervous system safety is the first curriculum.
• Daily co-regulation strategies → go beyond “calm down” scripts to build real connection.
• A trauma-informed lens → reframe fight, flight, freeze, and fawn as survival—not misbehavior.
• Explicit teaching of self-regulation → build routines instead of assuming students “just know.”
• UDL & sensory checklists → design classrooms where every student feels safe.
• Family + caregiver guides → bridge support between home and school.
• Leadership reflection tools → help admins model regulation and reduce burnout.
