NAIS School Culture and Student Experience Webinar Series: No One Should Struggle Alone: Belonging, Help-Seeking & the Power of Supportive Communities

Research consistently shows that connection is one of the strongest protective factors in a young person's life. In this webinar from the 2026-2027 NAIS School Culture and Student Experience Webinar Series, join NAIS and The Jed Foundation to explore how schools can create cultures in which students feel known, supported, and comfortable seeking help before challenges become crises. Consider the relationships, systems, and everyday practices that reduce stigma, strengthen pathways to support, and make care a shared community responsibility.

Presenters: 

• Yerko Sepúlveda, vice president of school culture and student experience, NAIS
• Nance Roy, chief clinical officer, The Jed Foundation
