Suggested Mental Health Staff Training with Michael Gulino – 3 Dimensional Leadership Consultants, LLC

Michael Gulino discusses mental health staff training that is essential for your program. He recommends, especially for non-teacher coaches, to instruct them on Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
