By Mallory BoyceThe Colorado Attorney General’s Office this week launched a training program during Suicide Prevention Month to help educators and school leaders recognize when students may be at risk of harming themselves or others and take steps to prevent violence.
“Educators are often the first to notice when a student is struggling or showing signs of crisis,” said Attorney General Phil Weiser.
“This training provides teachers, professors, administrators, school resource officers, and campus security with practical tools to intervene early and, when appropriate, use Colorado’s ERPO law to protect students and school communities.
The Colorado Department of Law developed the training to be scenario-based and accessible for busy educators.
The ERPO Curriculum for Educators builds on that commitment by giving school leaders and staff practical tools to help protect students across Colorado.
