In the school system in Nova Scotia, we've been advocating for some years for violence prevention and healthy relationship training from primary school to grade 12. Just recently, the Department of Education invited community-based organizations to review some new curriculum outcomes, so that there would be that curriculum from primary school to grade 12.
There has been a little bit of training for teachers. It was rolled out in grade 10 this past fall, and now we understand that it's on pause because there is concern among teachers that they don't feel prepared to teach the material, to grapple with disclosures and, maybe, to deal with their own trauma they're carrying, if they get triggered. We are working with a number of community organizations to see how we can develop some tools, videos and resources to help teachers and administrators feel more comfortable and confident about teaching to those curriculum outcomes.
There are a lot of resources provided by the school system, but still, I think there's fear. It's hard to grapple with that. There's also a program called GuysWork, which was funded provincially and federally.
