WhyTry Webinar Series
Understanding the Role of Stress and Trauma in Education Today – Supporting Staff and Students Through a Brain-Based Lens
Through stories, examples, and a lively panel conversation, we’ll explore how to support students whose emotional responses seem out of sync with expectations, how to help students regulate before we reason with them, and how understanding “state-dependent functioning” can completely change the way we approach learning and discipline.
Relationships and the Power of Connecting with Every Student with Bill Milliken
In this webinar, we will discuss ideas from education leaders on how to adapt to individual student needs and become a “relational router” to connect them with key support systems and develop the skills they need to succeed at school, at home, and in life.
From Trauma to Triumph: Resilience-Based Strategies for Improved Student Behavior
Join us for a powerful, free panel discussion presented by the National Alternative Education Association (NAEA) and WhyTry, that dives into what it really means to be trauma-informed—and how schools can build resilient environments where both students and educators thrive.

– Our Resilient Educator Webinar series
Every educator knows this moment:
A small trigger turns into a shutdown. A redirection becomes a power struggle. A student checks out—not because they don’t care, but because they don’t know how to regulate what they’re feeling.
In this free, one-hour webinar, we’ll focus on practical, classroom-ready strategies to help students move from reaction to regulation—so they can stay present, engaged, and ready to learn.
