Every single one of us has a role in protecting children. As someone who has dedicated his career to the safety of our most vulnerable – kids – Avery talks about three meaningful and straightforward strategies everyone can embrace, to help make our world a much safer place for children. At SOS ThreeSixty, Inc. where he is a co-founder, he specializes in supporting schools and their leaders in implementing Boundary Training, Safer Recruiting and Hiring, and Chaperone Training strategies to help create the safest environment possible for the children in their care to learn and thrive.

Schools utilize new techniques to recruit and hire teaching, non-teaching & coaching staff who respect strong boundaries between students and colleagues. Amidst strong competition, looming deadlines and the school year ending soon, independent schools are deep into ‘Hiring Season’ and administrators are working hard to recruit the best staff, who will respect and contribute to their school’s unique culture, mission, vision and values. SOS ThreeSixty, Inc.’s new online, asynchronous “Safer Recruiting & Hiring” course – completed in less than one hour – now provides hiring staff with the real tools they need to get to the heart of who their candidate is, what their intentions are to work with and around children – and to better utilize references in determining whether to make an offer of employment – or not. 

The two national conferences facilitated important discussions and opportunities for independent schools to make safe boundaries between staff and students. The Association of Boarding Schools (TABS) and Summer Programs And Auxiliary Revenue Collaborative (SPARC) recently held their annual conferences, with SOS ThreeSixty, Inc. exhibiting and providing effective Boundary Training Safety Solutions to many of the country’s independent day and boarding schools.

Establishing strong and healthy boundaries between staff and students is fundamental to having a safe environment.

A Certificate of Completion – for insurance and legal requirements – is also included. Additionally, access to expert guidance on this subject, after the training, provides learners with an opportunity to discuss any situation that may arise – or to address any questions.
