Crisis Response

The NCESD Crisis Response Team is a school-based crisis response team consisting of trained volunteers from School Districts, North Central ESD, Law Enforcement,, and supporting agencies throughout our three county region.

When a crisis occurs within or near a school district, the Crisis Response Team is contacted and a group of volunteers (usually 3 to 5 individuals) is assembled. The team travels to the school/district and works with administrators, staff, students and law enforcement to help process the emotional and physical impact a crisis event can impose. A team may also be called upon when there is an accidental death, suicide, or serious injury of a student, teacher, or administrator.

Crisis Response Team assistance often includes:

  • Crisis management procedural support for building administration 

  • Coping strategy information for building staff

  • Support Rooms for students and/or staff in crisis

  • Monitoring for students/staff in need

  • Filling in for building staff so they can deal with the crisis

  • Facilitating community referrals and networking

  • Assisting with follow-up needs

School administrators can request Crisis Response Team support by calling Michelle Geer or Lynn Cowdrey at NCESD (1-800-450-2732).
