One of the grants enabled the schools to bring in a consultant, Dr. Julia Taylor of the University of Virginia, who is an assistant professor in the counselor education program at the Curry School of Education & Human Development. A former school counselor and dean of an all-girls’ school in Raleigh, Taylor is an expert on helping school staff work with traumatized children. Last August she met with Orange County Public Schools school psychologists, counselors and social workers. She also met with school administrators and held training sessions for teachers at every school.
