School psych faculty, students publish front page Communiqué article on advancing equity during COVID-19

Faculty and students from the Department of Educational Psychology’s school psychology program—including Birkmaier Education Leadership Professor and Program Coordinator Amanda Sullivan; Associate Professor Faith Miller; Senior Lecturer Annie Hansen-Burke, PhD students Nicole McEverett, Alexandra Muldrew, and Mollie Weeks—published an article that was featured on the front page of Communiqué on advancing equity during COVID-19. Communiqué is the official newspaper of the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) and is one of the most widely disseminated resources to school psychologists.

In the article, “Leveraging MTSS to advance, not suppress COVID-related equity issues,” school psychology faculty and students provide guidance on how schools can center equity in their student support structures in the wake of COVID-19 and social unrest. 

Thank you to our school psychology faculty and students for their continued leadership on equity issues!
