How is this training part of the McGrath Response System™?
The McGrath Response System™ is a system-wide approach for creating a culture of prevention and response and ensuring compliance with your district’s policies, state laws and federal regulations, including Title VI, Title VII, and Title IX.
​
It thoroughly addresses bullying, discrimination, sexual harassment, and sexual misconduct with a single, easy-to-follow framework and set of tools. It covers student-to-student, student-to-staff, staff-to-student, and staff-to-staff issues and ensures your school or district is complying with the current 2020 Title IX Final Rule, as well as, providing updated materials in compliance with the 2024 Title IX regulations.
​
The Student Awareness and Response Training is one of several courses and trainings within the McGrath Response System™ that work together to create a culture of 'see something, say something.' Administrators can't be everywhere, so it's important to make sure all students, staff and parents know how to report and who to report to.
​
Because the Student Awareness Training is a component of the greater McGrath Response System™, your students receive training with the same vocabulary and methodology as your staff. Additionally, their training aligns with the framework, forms and tools that can be used by your trained investigators ensuring consistency and cohesion across your school or district.
