A NABITA Tip of the Week by Aaron Austin, Ed.D.
One of the most emotionally taxing responsibilities a Behavioral Intervention Team (BIT) will face is supporting their institution through the death of a student. BITs assist in facilitating coordinated communication and help ensure necessary steps are taken to support the student’s family, friends, and campus community. By establishing protocols in advance, institutions can support grieving families, students, and employees while swiftly and thoughtfully addressing logistical and emotional challenges.
