Lifting Up

We are Lifting Up children who are impacted by Adverse Childhood Experiences, so they can be handled with care. Research shows the power of protective factors, particularly a trusted adult at school. However, it is difficult for school staff to know exactly which students need help, when they need it. Lifting Up connects these dots, automating a notification process from first responders to give select school staff the heads up they need to connect and engage with students who may be battling toxic stress. Our mission is to ensure every child has a trusted adult at school who can help them re-regulate and build their resilience using simple strategies like a smile, a hello, and a brief check-in.
