In this special extended-length edition back-to-school podcast, we explore recovery and how to create a solid return to school in the fall, even if your student was able to partially attend school last spring. We discuss all academic phases (elementary, middle, and high school plus college), including challenges and tips.

To help parents and caregivers prepare for the transition, we're sitting down with FAACT's Director of Behavioral Health, Emery Brown, MA, Ed.S., NCSP, School Psychology, to discover tools to mentally prepare your student and your family for this unusual and much-welcomed return to the classroom.
