Talk Room Instructions

 

PLEASE SEND THIS URL TO THE 5 TRUSTED ADULTS THE SCHOOL IS RECRUITING TO STAFF THE TALKROOM.

Dear Trusted Adult:

Thanks so much for partnering with the Get Schooled Tour Virtual Event! You’ve been given this URL because the school named you as a trusted adult for their students in your community. Our hope is that you’ve been contacted by the school and invited to be present in the TALK room following the Get Schooled Tour Event at your school. Please take time to review this page and watch any videos before the day of your school’s assembly event.


The Get Schooled Tour is a one-hour assembly that uses live entertainment to engage students, collects data through our polling software, and provides courage for students to talk about their secret struggles through getting care from people like you, the TALK room staff, as well as our 24/7 text to chat center at RemedyLIVE.

Topics that may be discussed*:

  • Mental Health

  • Pain

  • Escapism

  • Vaping and Illegal Substances

  • Anger

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

*Not all topics will be discussed at each event.

The students will be encouraged to be radically honest with a trusted adult about how they are doing and what they are going through. The TALK room is a safe place for students who want to be radically honest immediately following the event. Please watch the following video to become familiar with what we expect of you for the TALK room following the Get Schooled Tour Assembly.

 

What we need from you:

  1. Feel free to join us for the event! It will last roughly 60 minutes, so please make your way to the TALK room before the conclusion.

  2. Bring a pen and notepad. Please keep notes on what students share with you. At the end of the TALK room time, please provide the school administration with the names of the students you talked to and any important information.

  3. Smile. As a student is introduced to you, make every effort to welcome them with a smile!

  4. Do not promise to keep what the students share a secret. A student may ask you to keep what they share a secret. If this is the case, remind them that their well-being and long-term health are too important not to do everything you can to get them the help they need, including telling someone else.

    If a student shares that they are thinking of suicide or hurting another, please connect them with a Community Mental Health Expert or a School Guidance Counselor.

    If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected] or contact the school representative in your community.
