Newcomer refugee students arriving in U.S. schools often face significant trauma-related challenges, including high rates of violence exposure and limited schooling. Such trauma can detrimentally impact academic progress, motivation, and school completion. To address these challenges, approaches rooted in ecological systems theory, constructivism, and sociocultural theory may be most effective.

This session will address the major issues that impact refugee children and their families while navigating the school system. Presenters will review the research and describe strategies for supporting the inclusion, academic progress, and social-emotional behaviors of refugee children. This presentation will focus on strategies for integrated support of refugee children.
