Promoting a Safe and Positive School Environment: School Social Workers’ Role in Preventing Cyberbullying & Supporting Student Mental Health

September 23, 2026 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (EDT)

Description

Creating a safe learning environment and supporting student mental health requires a multi-faceted and community-based approach, in which school social workers play a key role. By supporting students experiencing mental health challenges and/or cyberbullying, school social workers can help foster safety and promote better academic and behavioral outcomes.  

Join representatives from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s School Safety Task Force and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s Division of Children and School Mental Health to explore current trends in student mental health and cyberbullying as well as best practices for preventing and addressing cyberbullying in K-12 settings. This presentation will highlight research-informed strategies and recommendations, including the latest federal resources, that support student mental health and mitigate the impacts of cyberbullying behavior.

Presented by: Aimee Melendez (Federal School Safety Task Force) and Adam Wheeler + Jen Treger (SAMHSA)

Target Audience: School social workers

Learning Objectives:

  • Participants will be able to apply practical approaches for cyberbullying prevention and mental health support within their school communities.
  • Participants will be able to state recommendations and best practices to foster a safe and supportive school climate. 
  • Participants will be able to identify two research informed strategies or tools that strengthen school responses to cyberbullying and support student mental health.

Please note: This webinar will only be available live, it will not be recorded for later viewing.
